Abstract

Introduction: The Early Stimulation Program is a clinical-therapeutic service for children aged 0 to 3 years, aimed at promoting essential sensory-motor experiences to enhance neuropsychomotor development. Physiotherapy for newborns includes stimulating motor development through neuromuscular facilitation techniques, mobilization exercises, and therapeutic positioning, as well as preventing musculoskeletal complications such as contractures and dysplasia. Objective: To analyze physiotherapeutic intervention through early stimulation in preterm newborns. Methodology: A systematic review was conducted using electronic databases such as BVS, LILACS, SciELO, PubMed, PEDro, and the CAPES Portal. Final Considerations: Early physiotherapeutic intervention shows positive results in the motor development of preterm newborns, proving to be an essential tool to reduce risks and improve quality of life from the very first days of life.
