This article discusses about body, health and disease in works of Maurice Merleau-Ponty, seeking implications for practices inclusive. Problematizes the traditional model of health and disease, considered as opposites and guided in the biomedical perspective. Problematizes the idea of health as absence of disease, the disease recognized as an abnormality and the patient treated as an intervention and considered incapable. It follows that the existential understanding of health and disease in an existential perspective and its affective dimension can collaborate with health professionals to take a broader perspective on the human condition and its diversity.
