Beyond ingredients. Every active botanical in these formulas carries centuries of tradition, chosen because they work.
Yi Tiao Gen (active root)
A root native to Kinmen islands, in the Taiwan Strait. Wild-harvested rather than farmed at scale.
Used for generations in Taiwan to ease aching muscles, stiff joints and everyday aches. Local record traces its use back to the Koxinga era in the 1660s, when soldiers stationed on Kinmen are said to have first turned to the root for relief. It has remained a staple of herbal practice for hundreds of years.
Gathered wild in limited seasonal quantity, with roots typically harvested after three years of growth, in autumn and winter.
Graphene
A modern material — a single layer of carbon atoms, first isolated in 2004 (Nobel Prize in Physics, 2010).
Spreads heat evenly and holds it longer, so the warmth lasts through the day. That's why it's used in our warmest patch and roller.
Tourmaline
A mineral valued for its heat-retaining properties. Tourmaline is naturally piezoelectric — when heated, it generates a small electrical charge and emits far-infrared wavelengths.
Mined globally, including Brazil, parts of Africa, and China. Gives off far-infrared warmth that helps heat sink into tight muscles.
Unlike Yi Tiao Gen or turmeric, tourmaline is a modern addition — valued for its warming function.
Turmeric
Native to South and Southeast Asia, with India historically the largest grower. Also long cultivated in southern China.
Known in Chinese medicine as jiāng huáng, turmeric has featured in Chinese and South Asian herbal practice for well over a thousand years. Long used for inflammation, aches and stiff joints, it gives our warming products their deep, earthy heat.
The root is dug, dried and extracted.
