Resumo (PT): The author makes some epistemological considerations on the urge to spread psychosomatics. To begin with, the heavy burden of mental disturbs in health care systems today lead to an absolute need for a proper psychosomatic training of general practitioners. Then the 50 years of increasing psycopharmacological treatments available account for the mainstream split-care model; as the number of psychiatrists who focus on logotherapy decreased systematically while the professional body of nonmedical therapists has grown. Hence the impending need of psychosomatics as a counterbalance to adequately deal with the bio-psychosocial aspects involved both in heath and in disease. Finally concluding that, between physicalism and panpsychism, Psychosomatic Medicine has to find its way by getting rid of the outdated cartesian dualism.
