If you do a google on dermatomes, you'll find a reasonably readable chart on how the nerves from each vertebra effect certain areas in the body, and many of our limb/torso pains can be linked back to a vertebra out of place. I learned about them in the massage education I took. I've yet to find the chart on line that they gave to us, but I've seen some that give a good picture of these zones. This information should be able to help many people to help figure out where certain problems might be, with respect to body aches.

When I was taking massage, there was a period when my wife went through a whole summer with her torso around the liver and stomach aching all of the time, and it wasn't until the deep tissue classes, that we discovered a vertebra area between T5 and T6 that adjusted after a massage, that the pain went away.
