This article has a theoretical character with implications for practice. It presents an original idea of relations between the concepts of health and faith, hope and love. Health is understood here, in accordance with medical tradition, as referring to the condition of the body, that is the biological and physic-chemical nature of man. While faith, hope and love belong to the spiritual, social and mental category. I try, beyond the classic psychosomatic approach, to indicate a broader context of these relationships.
