This portion of the spine is meant to support the rib cage and provide proper posture for the body. The 12 vertebrae that make up the thoracic spine, commonly referred to as T1-T12, each have two facet joint sets â one set on the top and one set on the bottom â that are responsible for providing the middle back with flexibility and strength.
The thoracic vertebrae are T1 - T12. The lumbar vertebrae are L1 - L5. The sacrum and coccyx do not have numbers and each is thought of as one bone. Spinal nerves exit the sacrum and coccyx at levels (Foramen) within the main structure of each vertebra.
