What day is it today?
The instructions were for a “mummy-like woman with compresses all over her body,” but I wonder if “compress” is a word that’s only used in Japan??? “Compress” can be translated as “Band-Aid.”
Anyway, it came out pretty beautiful, so I’ll call it a success this time.
May 18th is “Salonpas Day: Heal Your Stiffness.” It was established in 2015 by Hisamitsu Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., the company that produces the topical analgesic and anti-inflammatory Salonpas and spreads the culture of patch therapy to the world. The name is a play on words, “ko(5) ri wo iya(18) suru (heal your stiffness).”
