Fail of a comment. Each vertebrae is connected to an individual organ or system in the body. Habitual sedentary lifestyles give us tendencies to put pressure on the spine which wants to be stretched and massaged, but usually isn't. I believe it was Hippocrates, father of Medicine who said that disease begins in the spine, but I'm not going to dig for it because your attitude doesn't warrant it. Just Google on your own the vertebral connections to the bodily systems.
