Question 11156 — health professions

Summary

Mr. Éric Pauget draws the attention of the Minister of Solidarity and Health to the practice of osteopathy in France. He reminds her that certain medical manipulations are reserved for osteopaths who are doctors of medicine. For example, manipulation of the cervical spine and that of children under 6 months of age are prohibited for osteopaths who do not have a health profession diploma, unless there is a medical certificate (not contraindications for infants under 6 months). However, it turns out that this provision is far from being respected in practice, with sometimes disastrous consequences. Also, he would like to know what resources will be given to the ARS so that they can carry out systematic checks on osteopaths who are not health professionals and, if necessary, apply sanctions in the event of non-compliance with the law.
