Abstract
There is a specifi c interest to the development of research in the osteopathic fi eld: fi rst in order to understand better its effects, then to continue to optimize its practice. To objectivise and quantify the effects of osteopathy would not only legitimate its practice but would also permit progression for the practitioners. These practitioners usually have a somewhat unclear notion of what research is. Firstly this article plans to describe the different types of studies of interest for the osteopathic fi eld, secondly to give an example of scientifi c process, including a step-by-step guide to the osteopath in devising his/her refl exion and building his/her project.
