The idea

Four leaves, one warm ritual.

Yotsuba means "four leaves" in Japanese. Each leaf stands for one part of a small daily habit.

01

Warmth

Self-heating comfort that builds and lasts for hours.

02

Herb

Mugwort, the leaf at the heart of moxa.

03

Ritual

Peel, stick, slow down. Thirty seconds, once a day.

04

Rest

A quiet pause after the walk, the garden or the run.

How it works

Thirty seconds to warmth.

1. Peel

Remove the clear backing film.

2. Stick

Press onto clean, dry skin over your knee. Cut it to size if you like.

3. Rest

Feel the warmth build. Remove after up to 8 hours.

The ingredient

The leaf behind moxa.

Mugwort, yomogi in Japanese, has been dried into soft moxa wool for centuries and used in warming rituals across East Asia.

Each patch carries that herbal tradition in a simple, self-heating form. No creams, no mess.

Everyday comfort

Made for knees that do a lot.

Cold mornings, long walks, weekends in the garden, leg day. Slip a patch under your clothes and get on with your day.
