Abstract
Abstract
Blas Álvarez de Miraval (c. 1560-c. ?) is an outstanding humanist doctor, author of the work On the Conservation of the Health of the Body and the Soul, in which he tries to close the full circle of the classic concept of health, taken to the maximum expression through the care of the body, but also of the soul. This galenic approach is approached in both its two aspects, conservation and restoration, with Motor Sciences as one of its main exponents. The purpose of this study is to search for the relationship between medical Humanism and motor skills sciences today, highlighting these important humanistic sources for Medicine but also of great value for Sports Sciences.
