The present study attempts to understand the construction of the trajectory of the physiotherapist in João Pessoa PB. The interest came from the uneasiness of being a physiotherapist and to attempt to understand through the perception of peers how the trajectory of this profession has been constructed, since, like others, its emergence occurred on the banks of the medical profession. Initially it became necessary to rescue concepts of sociology that promoted a base for discussion around the following axes: trajectory, recognition and interrelations in the field, where these were always linked to other concepts such as field, vocation and work market. Several sources were consulted, such as: books and scientific papers (printed and online) that had as extraction sources the academic databases (Lilacs, Scielo, Bireme, EBSCOhost e scholar Google), using publications that were in their full text. Several authors have subsidized this understanding, although some have become the pillars of the research, such as Parsons, Freidson, Bourdieu, Foucault, Honneth and Thaylor. Simultaneous to the theoretical base has been the empirical research that was constructed through the physiotherapists speech and the understanding of their working field that was assembled through visitations to the necessary locations for this understanding. The empirical research took place in the period of January of 2012 to September of 2013 with the interviews and the notes of the field diary. Initially the composition of the sample was made and this was possible through the construction of networks among the physiotherapists, totaling 17 physiotherapists of both genders with average of professional activity of 11.5 years. In a second stage the interviews were made in an environment, date and time that better suited the person being researched, following the guidance of a semi-structured survey. After every interview the researcher transcribed, read, reread, comprehended and analyzed it by the light of sociology. Thus, the trajectory of the physiotherapist in João Pessoa, as well as many other professionals, is steeped in a multitude of contexts, the dynamics of the world and of the subjects undergo changes every day, marked by uncertainties, which generate uncertainties about the future of the profession.
