Françoise Mézières was the creator of his method and died in 1991. Unfortunately we could not know, but according tell their disciples was a physiotherapist with a strong personality. She was a pioneer in treating muscle following the concept of muscle chain. Perhaps the posterior chain stretching and posture has been so more is known about it, but throughout his career and was described numerous other techniques to treat them.

Everyone recognizes the figure of Françoise Mézières as the introducer of the global physiotherapy based on the concept of body unity, both diagnosis and treatment. His great strength was to be an excellent therapist and improve injured patients considered incurable, but had a great weakness, its publications. Indeed, he did not elaborate enough on the theory that was extracted from the success of his method.

Perhaps this lack of scientific publications has allowed much of his disciples, that emptiness appropriate to theorize about the muscle chains. Numerous techniques come from or have been strongly influenced by the Mézières method among which are: RPGde Philippe Souchard, muscle and joint chains Struyf-Denys, physiological chains Leopold Busquets, the antigimnasia Bertherat Thérèse.

We were interested to know the root of all these global therapies and decided to form in the Mézières method through the Association Internationale de Kinéshitérapie Mézièriste (AMIK) based in Paris. Jacques Philippe Patte as director and Campignion along with other direct disciples of Françoise Mézières, were responsible for providing this training which at that time was made in the beautiful city of Tours, capital of the Loire.
