The lumbar region of the spinal cord is connected to the lower - body nerves and is responsible for transmitting information to the legs. It controls leg movement and sensation. Balance and coordination are more related to the cerebellum. The arms are connected to the cervical region of the spinal cord, and the head and torso have different neural connections not primarily associated with the lumbar spinal cord.
