Your patch goes cold by 10pm. That's why mornings still hurt.
Most Knee Patches Quit Before Midnight.
Kampo-style warming, held low and steady for 8 hours — so you don't wake up locked.
Bone-on-bone at 68. I still do my own stairs.
You already know herbal patches work. You've bought them before. Wormwood, ginger, menthol — every brand uses the same short list, and yours probably did something for about an hour.
Then it went cold.
The Mechanism: The 8-Hour Warm Window
That's the part nobody mentions. In traditional Kampo warming practice, a joint was never treated with one quick blast of heat. It was low, steady warmth, held long enough to carry the joint through the night. Spike it hot and it fades fast. Hold it low and it lasts. Mass-market patches spike hot in the first twenty minutes, burn off, and go cold long before you sleep — so the joint re-stiffens overnight with nothing on it. Nuku is built to the old rule: one patch, on before bed, holds a gentle warm window for up to eight hours — through the whole night, not the first hour of it.
You put it on tired. You wake up moving. For people past sixty who still take their own stairs, still carry their own groceries, still refuse to be driven anywhere — this is the difference between managing a knee all day and forgetting about it until evening.

Common Questions
How long do herbal knee patches stay warm?
Most mass-market patches spike hot in the first twenty minutes, burn off their volatiles, and go cold long before you fall asleep. Nuku holds a lower, steadier warm window for up to 8 hours — the Kampo rule of low continuous warmth instead of one hot hit — so the joint stays covered through the night.
Why is my knee stiffest first thing in the morning?
Because the joint re-stiffens overnight with nothing on it — whatever you applied in the evening usually quit hours before you woke. An 8-hour warm window carries the tissue through the whole night, which is why the difference shows up in the first ten minutes after you stand up.
Can I wear a warming knee patch while I sleep?
Yes — Nuku is designed for exactly that: apply one patch to clean, dry skin before bed and peel it off in the morning. The warmth is held low and steady rather than hot, which is what makes overnight wear comfortable.
How many knee patches come in a box and how long does it last?
Twelve patches per box — two weeks of nights at the one-patch-per-night protocol. Most people reorder before the box runs out, because the nights you skip are the mornings you feel.
