Know more about our spinal segment


🌊Do you know our spinal cord lies inside spinal column which makes up of 33bones?


As a whole they called vertebrae!5 vertebrae are fused together to form the sacrum (BLUE in pic, the triangle bone forming part of the pelvis).4 small vertebrae are fused together to form the coccyx (YELLOW in pic, tailbone).


The spine itself is divided into 4 sections, not including the tailbone:

🥐Cervical vertebrae (C1-C7): located in the neck

🥒Thoracic vertebrae (T1-T12): located in the upper back and attached to the ribcage

🍡Lumbar vertebrae (L1-L5): located in the lower back

🍰Sacral vertebrae (S1-S5): located in the pelvis


Each spinal segment has its own name. Do you know which segment gets your most attention?Stored emotions?Source of pain or restriction?Similar symptoms connection with family members? Injuries?Favourite touch/sensation of it?
