The lumbar spine can side bend about 20 degrees each way. The spine in your lower back, called the lumbar spine, can bend forward, backward and side to side. It is capable of a small amount of rotation as well.he range of motion, or how far your spine can move, is limited by the disks between the vertebrae, the ligaments that tie the vertebrae together and the orientation of the facet joints on the back part of the vertebrae. Muscle tension can restrict your range of motion as well.
Lumbarization is an anomaly in the spine. It is defined by the nonfusion of the first and second segments of the sacrum. The lumbar spine subsequently appears to have six vertebrae or segments, not five.Conversely the sacrum appears to have only four segments instead of its designated five segments.acralization of the fifth lumbar vertebra (or sacralization) is a congenital anomaly, in which the transverse process of the last lumbar vertebra (L5) fuses to the sacrum on one side or both, or to ilium, or both. These anomalies are observed at about 3.5 percent of people, and it is usually bilateral.
