About Ammeltz
Ammeltz is a liquid topical analgesic for stiff shoulders that Kobayashi Pharmaceutical launched in 1966 and began selling nationwide in Japan in 1967, conceived as an invisible alternative to medicated patches. The Ammeltz Yoko Yoko applicator turned the application head sideways, Ammeltz NEO followed in 2016, and the company counts Ammeltz with body warmers and cooling gel sheets as one of its three pillars overseas.
