About the trial
What the trial wants to find out
Lyme borreliosis, commonly known as Lyme disease, has been clinically described for more than a century, but has been officially recognized for 40 years, with the detection of the Borrelia bacterium by W. Burgdorfer, in ticks of the Ixodes ricinus complex, identified a few years before.
The 2 groups in the trial
- Lyme Borreliosis with physical activity programTreatment being tested
Referral of the patient to the sport-health center of his department by the investigating physician (in connection with the attending physician for the prescription of Adaptive Physical Activity): for 24 sessions of APA for 3 months at a rate of 2 sessions/week at the sport and health center + 9 sessions of Therapeutic Patient Education in telecare
Treatment: physical activity program
- Lyme Borreliosis patients with physical activity at homeOther group
routine clinical practice : encouragement by the attending physician to modify lifestyle habits with advice on resuming regular physical activity independently and combating sedentariness. At home, in autonomy for 3 months.
Treatment: Advice and recommendations of physical activity at home
