🦴 The spine is made up of 4 vertebral curvatures. These help to support the body's weight and protect the spinal cord. 🦴
• The cervical section of the spine is located through your neck and made up of 7 vertebrae. These provide mobility and stability to the head and neck!

• The thoracic section of the spine is located through your mid back and is made of 12 vertebrae. These are connected to the ribs and help protect the heart and lungs!

• The lumbar section of the spine is located through the low back and is made up of 5 vertebrae. It's function is to support all the weight of the upper body and provide flexibility to the torso!

• The sacrum is made up of 5 vertebrae segments located below the lumbar spine. This helps to form the pelvis by connecting the hip bones to provide a strong base of support!
