Abstract
MORALES CLEMOTTE, Lelis Noelia. Kinesiology and Physiotherapy in Paraguay: 66 years of its historical journey. Med. clín. soc. [online]. 2021, vol.5, n.1, pp.50-54. ISSN 2521-2281. https://doi.org/10.52379/mcs.v5i1.164.
Kinesiology and Physiotherapy in Paraguay has a relatively recent, but very rich history. In this special article, a historical tour of the 66 years of the profession in the country is made: beginning with the arrival of the first physiotherapist to the country (in 1954), and ending with the promulgation and regulation of the Law that controls the exercise of the profession (in 2019-2020). The historical events narrated in this article are a clear example of the importance of a professional representation at a national and international level, as well as the love of this noble profession.
