I believe the normal Babinski reflex is to curle the toes down (so that
the toes curl up in very young babies and in people whose spinal cord
has been compromised.
And now for a question in return. Is a bilateral Babinski reflex
induced by stimulating one foot, with toe curling occuring on the
opposite (contralateral) foot?
