Orthodox social science critique of the medical perspective:• "In the biomedical and managerialist approach it is difficult to see beyond
immediate, specific needs that can be provided in the current health and social care system." (Heinonen, et al. 2009, p. 150)
Flawed social work perspective: • "A depressed young person cannot exercise, an anxious child will eat to
quell their fears. You don’t have to be a Freudian to appreciate the oral and anal comfort gained from the digestive process." (Walker, 2009, p. 10)
We need to move beyond these perspectives: Play when Possible, Therapy only when Needed. (And what kind of therapy?)
• "Provision of information alone, even scientifically-based physical activity guidelines, is not sufficient to bring about behavior change." (Troiano & Haskell, 2010, p. 38)

• Sport and PA can make a strong contribution to the prevention of obesity.
• This means that sport organisations and school sport must have appropriate concepts.
• The medical perspective cannot do the job alone. But it is equally important to avoid the « therapeutic trap ».
• Sport academics and sport professionals must develop their own HEPA concepts, while drawing on the contributions made by other disciplines and professions.
