Medical device trading company celebrating its 50th anniversary strengthens rollout of body care products for sports and fitness sectors

Solve Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture, Representative Director: Hideo Mitsui) will fully launch the domestic rollout of "5 Minute Relief Patch (Medical Skin Fit Patch)," an ultra-thin silicone patch-type general medical device developed by Tuning Element, LLC. (USA), in order to strengthen the deployment of body care products for the sports and fitness sectors and for general consumers.

This product is a general medical device used for the purpose of relieving pain and stiffness. It features a waterproof design and does not use drugs, electricity, or magnetism, making it easy to use in daily life and during sports activities. It is intended for use in self-care in sports scenes and in the medical/nursing care fields, as well as for daily body care for chronic stiff shoulders and lower back pain caused by standing work or desk work.

As part of its domestic rollout, the company will offer product trial opportunities for sports-related businesses, facilities, and corporate clients at "SPORTEC2026" held at Tokyo Big Sight, and will introduce it as a self-care product to support daily body care for drugstore and retail distribution stakeholders and general consumers at the "26th JAPAN DRUGSTORE SHOW."

Furthermore, a landing page with product information and purchasing guidance is scheduled to be released this summer, prior to the launch of the official Japanese brand website.

This year, as the company celebrates its 50th anniversary, it will fully launch the domestic rollout of "5 Minute Relief Patch" as a new initiative connecting medicine and daily life.
