Abstract

Visual handicapped children have many difficulties in discovering and acquiring knowledge about their own body, the objects around and the indispensable concept of space, that is necessary to realize correct locomotion movements and to get independent mobility. The most frequent method used in specialized institutions for rehabilitation is that called "Precocious Stimulation", where the involved professionals, among them the physiotherapist, stimulate the child to impede delays in the sensory-motor development becoming integrated and independent in the society.
