Spinal Test?

So, I went to the doctor today for pre op testing for my spinal fusion next Wednesday & my phys. traced his hand on the bottom of my feet to see my reaction. he said something about it going up(normal) or to see if it go down(not normal) and mine was in the middle. Something to do with the spinal cord.. does anyone know what the exam was?
checking babinski reflex(google has tons of hits for this. The fact that you are have spinal fusion may indicate why he was checking that specifically.
