Do you remember “anatomically correct bone socks“?

I came across another pair of socks which showed all the sites for acupuncture. Acupuncture is traditional Chinese treatment which uses thin needles to insert to specific points on the body to relieve pain, cure diseases, or anesthetize body part for surgery.

I would not recommend you to acupuncture yourself with needles after wearing this pair of socks as the acupoints on the socks may not match the one on your legs (depends how you wear your socks). You may massage the acupoints.

Some people said they won’t tattoo themselves an anatomy tattoo, so I came across this “Anatomically Correct Bone Socks“, which you will not hurt yourself.

Besides cheating in the leg bones anatomy exam, this pair of socks also helps you not wearing the wrong socks with the wrong legs (many people still doing that, even sometimes after I wear wrong and found it quite annoying).
