Spine plays an important role in our body by helping us stand erect and also by assisting in our movements. It is made up of vertebrae, a collection of small bones which are joined together by muscles and ligaments. These bones are separated at each interval by discs which act as cushions and greatly help in bending or facilitate the body’s movements without the bones coming in contact with each other. The spine, bearing most of our body weight is due to obvious reasons, subjected to regular wear and tear making it highly critical for us to take good care of it.

The vertebrae in the spine are divided into different regions, the cervical spine (the neck region), thoracic spine (chest region) and lumbar and sacral spine (the lower back region).
