|
Tonic labyrinthine supine |
A. Place infant in supine B. Increased extensor tone C. Facilitates total-body flexor tone |
|
|
Tonic labyrinthine - Prone |
A. Place infant in prone B. Increased flexor tone C. Facilitates total-body flexor tone |
|
|
Labyrinthine/ optical (head) righting |
A. Hold infant suspended vertically and tilt slowly (about 45°) to the side, forward, or backward. B. Upright positioning of the head C. Orients head in space; maintains face vertical |
|
|

|
|
Neck righting (NOB) |
A. Place infant in supine and fully turn head to one side B. Log rolling of entire body to maintain alignment with the head C. Maintains head/body alignment; initiates rolling (first ambulation effort) |
|
|
Body righting (on body BOB) |
A. Place infant in supine, flex one hip and knee toward the chest and hold briefly B. Segmental rolling of the upper trunk to maintain alignment C. Facilitates trunk/spinal rotation |
|
|

|
|
Forward parachute (protective extension forward) |
A. Suddenly tip infant forward toward supporting surface while vertically suspended B. Sudden extension of the upper extremities, hand opening, and neck extension C. Allows accurate placement of upper extremities in anticipation of supporting surface to prevent a fall |
|
|
Sideward parachute (protective extension backward) |
A. Quickly but firmly tip infant off-balance to the side while in sitting position B. Arm extension and abduction to the side C. Protects body to prevent a fall; supports body for unilateral use of opposite arm |
|
|
Backward parachute (protective extension backward) |
A. Quickly but firmly tip infant off-balance backward B. Backwards arm extension or arm extension to one side C. Protects body to prevent a fall; unilaterally facilitates spinal rotation |
|
|
Prone tilting |
A. After positioning infant in supine or sitting, slowly raise one side of the supporting surface B. Curving of the spine toward the raised side (opposite to the pull of gravity); abduction/extension of arms and legs C. Maintain equilibrium without arm support; facilitate postural adjustments in all positions |
|
|

A. After positioning infant in supine or sitting, slowly raise one side of the supporting surface B. Curving of the spine toward the raised side (opposite to the pull of gravity); abduction /extension of arms and legs |
|
|
Quadruped tilting |
A. After positioning infant on all fours, slowly raise one side of the supporting surface B. Curving of the spine toward the raised side (opposite to the pull of gravity); abduction/extension of arms and legs C. Maintain equilibrium without arm support; facilitate postural adjustments in all positions |
|
|
Standing tilting |
A. After positioning infant on all fours, slowly raise one side of the supporting surface B. Curving of the spine toward the raised side (opposite to the pull of gravity); abduction/extension of arms and legs C. Maintain equilibrium without arm support; facilitate postural adjustments in all positions |
