Abstract:

The medical and paramedical supervison of sportsmen and sportwomen require an excellent collaboration and the recognition of the competencies of each person among the sport medical team. Physiotherapy and osteopathy are complementary and indissociable activities in this framework. The practitioner with this double education could provide real holistic care with efficient, safe and evidence based methods in cases of traumatic or overload pathologies as well as in cases of functional disorders. This will be illustrated with a clinical observation.
