Glide joint
All the joints of the spinal column are gliding joints except the very first two in the neck region. These are a pivot joint.

Secondary cartilaginous joints. GLIDING
There is not one "joint" in the neck. It is a series of complicated joints that have a place for the spinal cord to go through and the bones of the spine protect the spinal cord. The cervical spine has more than just one ROM and that could not be accomplished with a shoulder joint.
Spinal meningitis is a common name for meningitis.
This joint allows for slight movement. A good example are most of the spinal vertebrae. A person with more movement would be rather unstable.

The joint that allows a small amount of movement in the spinal column is known as a "symphysis," specifically the intervertebral joints. These joints are formed between the vertebrae and are composed of fibrocartilage discs that provide slight flexibility while maintaining stability. This limited movement is essential for the overall flexibility and function of the spine, allowing for bending and twisting motions while protecting the spinal cord.
There is no joint between brain and spinal cord. The spinal cord is a mass of neurones that is situated in the backbone which feeds in to the brain via neurones.
The shock absorber in the body is called the sacroiliac joint. The joint is located on top of the sacrum near the base of the spinal column.
