A masseur-physiotherapist must not set up in a building where a colleague is practising without the agreement of that colleague or the authorisation of the Conseil Départemental de l’Ordre. Such authorisation may only be refused on the grounds of a risk of confusion for the public. If the Conseil Départemental de l’Ordre remains silent, tacit authorisation will be deemed to have been granted on expiry of a period of two months from the date of receipt of the application.
