This is a reflex test... It's called the Asymmetrical Tonic Neck Reflex (ATNR). This reflex should normally integrate (go away) by around 6 months of age. If it's still present later, it can affect posture, hand-eye coordination, and even reading and writing skills. You can check this on your child by having them in a "puppy push-up" position, gently turning their head side to side, and watching to see if their arms straighten or bend in response.

The Asymmetrical Tonic Neck Reflex (ATNR) is closely linked to dyslexia due to its impact on a child’s development. When the ATNR is retained, it can disrupt motor skills and coordination, which are crucial for reading and writing. It has huge impact on learning. Signs of Retention/Impact on ADLs are noticed : • Decreased hand-eye coordination • Poor handwriting • Uncoordinated gait • Poor balance • Poor visual-motor skills and tracking • Problems with math and reading • Difficulty crossing midl
