The '''Lumbar Nook''' is the smallest accessible area in [[Bowser's body]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' and [[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey|its remake]]. It is located in [[Bowser]]'s lower back (or, specifically, the {{wp|lumbar vertebrae}}, hence the name). Rejuvenating this area after Bowser suffers back pain allows him to learn [[Spike Ball (move)|Spike Ball]]. | The '''Lumbar Nook''' is the smallest accessible area in [[Bowser's body]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' and [[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey|its remake]].

It is possible to speed up the process, so that the player does not have to wait very long at all. If the player talks to Toadbert in [[Toad Square]] after defeating [[Bowser Memory M and Bowser Memory L]], he tells Mario and Luigi that he was having a weird dream, which foreshadows the event in the Lumbar Nook. He mentions a code: "{{button|ds|A}} {{button|ds|B}} {{button|ds|X}} {{button|ds|Y}} {{button|ds|L}} {{button|ds|R}} {{button|ds|Y}} {{button|ds|X}} {{button|ds|B}} {{button|ds|A}}." When this code is entered, time speeds up and Bowser's back is healed in seconds. | It is possible to speed up the process, so that the player does not have to wait very long at all.

*The Japanese name for the Lumbar Nook is ''Koshi no Tsubo'', roughly meaning "Lower Back Acupoint." Acupoints refer to the specific points on the body where needles are inserted in order to relieve pain. Thus, it can be inferred that Mario and Luigi's method of treating Bowser's back pain (by drilling into the soft spot) is a form of {{wp|acupuncture}}. | *The Japanese name for the Lumbar Nook is ''Koshi no Tsubo'', roughly meaning "Lower Back Acupoint."
