Abstract EN:
Three clinic cases serve as an introduction to the thesis: three cases of different origin, and of various degrees of gravity, treated with different degrees of success, but which are alike in that they would have developed differently, if they hadn't been tackled with this specific approach-the bodyschema in sophrology. The first part of the thesis is devoted to a historico-critical analysis of the bodyschema concept, from which it emerges that: - this concept stems from flaws in official medical science, notably in the field of neuro-physiology; - nothing really new has occurred in this respect since the begin- ning of the century. Psychoanalysis and psychosomatic research in particular, have to a certain degree failed to deal with the subject, despite some work on synthesis, of which schilder's contri- bution remains the most significant. Caycedo, the inventor of sophrology, cannot however be considered a bodyschema theorist. We see him borrowing from various sources such as schultz's autotraining, phenomenology and oriental techniques. In fact, it is from the very practice of sophrology that we are able

Trois cas cliniques servent d'introduction a la these: trois cas d'etiologie differente, de gravite diverse, traites avec un inegal succes, mais qui se ressemblent en ceci, qu'ils auraient evolue autrement, s'ils n'avaient ete abordes sous cette approche specifique du schema corporel en sophrologie. La premiere partie de la these est consacree a l'analyse histori co-critique du concept de schema corporel, dont il ressort: - que celui-ci a emerge des failles de la medecine officielle, et notamment de la neuro-physiologie; - que rien de veritablement nouveau n'est intervenu a cet egard depuis le debut du siecle, la psychanalyse et la psychosomatique en particulier ayant en quelque sorte fait l'impasse sur le su- jet, malgre des efforts de synthese, dont celui de schilder reste le plus signifiant. Caycedo, l'inventeur de la sopphrologie, ne sera pas pour autant un theoricien du schema corporel. Nous le voyons emprunter a des sour- ces diverses: training autogene de schultz, phenomenologie, techni- ques orientales d'entrainement corporel. . .
