Your thoracic spine is located in the center of your upper and middle back. It begins at the base of your neck (cervical spine) and ends around the bottom of your rib cage, just above your lower back (lumbar spine).
The thoracic spine is located in the upper and middle part of the back. Twelve vertebrae are located in the thoracic spine and are numbered T-1 to T-12. Each number corresponds with the nerves in that section of the spinal cord: T-1 through T-5 nerves affect muscles, upper chest, mid-back and abdominal muscles.
