New Patented Leggings from Osteopathic Clinic: 'Just Wear It' to Align Hip Joints, Upgrade Exercise and Work
Sun Hills Co., Ltd. will launch 'Walking Care Pro Leggings,' a patented functional legging developed from the clinical insights of Judo therapists, starting April 2026. These leggings offer 3D hip joint support by 'just wearing them,' with EMG verification showing increased gluteus medius activity and reduced outer thigh load.

Sun Hills Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Joto-ku, Osaka; Representative Director: Yosuke Yamaoka) will begin selling 'Walking Care Pro Leggings,' functional leggings developed from the clinical insights of Judo therapists, on its own e-commerce site and Amazon from April 2026.
With a patented 'Double Mesh Structure' (Patent Application 2025-193957, Patent No. 7847901), this design is completely different from conventional compression leggings, supporting the hip joint in 3D when stationary without restricting movement during activity.
Electromyography (EMG) verification confirmed a 24% increase in the activity of the inner hip muscle (gluteus medius) and a 31% reduction in excessive load on the outer thigh.
Ahead of Mother's Day on May 10th, we also propose it as a new gift for health.
Mother's Day campaign is underway.

Product Overview
◆ Development Background ── The 'Hip Joint' Blind Spot Seen in Osteopathic Clinics
Walking Care Pro Leggings were developed by Yosuke Yamaoka, a Judo therapist who operates an osteopathic clinic in Joto-ku, Osaka.
Through daily treatments, he felt that 'many women suffer from body instability because their hip joints are not properly aligned.'
Even with diligent yoga or Pilates poses, stability is elusive; even with continuous core training, effects are not felt—the cause of many of these issues lay in the hip joint, the 'foundation of the body.'
'If only the hip joints were aligned, movement would be much easier.' Feeling this, and for those who couldn't find time for care in their busy daily lives, he embarked on developing leggings that could support the hip joint 'just by wearing them.'
◆ Three Features ── A Design Completely Different from Conventional 'Tightening'
1. 3D Hip Joint Support
Achieves a sense of stability as if the hip joint area is enveloped just by wearing it. The pelvis becomes less prone to wobbling, supporting a state where the core can function easily.
2. Iliotibial Band Support
Distributes the burden that tends to concentrate on the outer thigh, guiding the gluteal muscles (gluteus medius) to be used more easily.
3. Support Design that Does Not Restrict Movement
The patented double mesh structure achieves the conflicting functions of 'not restricting movement when active, and supporting when needed.'
It is less tiring even with long hours of wear and can be widely used from lessons to daily life and standing work.
◆ Scientific Evidence by Electromyography
Verification of the wearing effect of this product was conducted using electromyography (EMG).
・Outer thigh (Tensor Fasciae Latae)
Unnecessary muscle tension, which can cause 'outer thigh tightness' and 'knee twisting' when overused, was reduced.
(Activity reduced by 31%)
・Inner hip muscle (Gluteus Medius)
Important muscles that support the pelvis work firmly, leading to hip lift, walking stability, and resolution of unsteadiness.
(Activity increased by 24%)
・Shin (Tibialis Anterior)
Unnecessary tension in the shin is removed, leading to smooth foot movement that is less prone to stumbling.
This muscle is related to leg swelling and fatigue.
(Activity reduced by 22%)
Inner hip muscle (Gluteus Medius) activity increased by 24%, outer thigh (Tensor Fasciae Latae) activity reduced by 31%, shin (Tibialis Anterior) activity reduced by 22%.
*Measurement data from December 2025 (Subjects: adult women) *Effects vary by individual
The gluteus medius is an important muscle that supports the pelvis, and an increase in its activity is expected to lead to hip lift and improved walking stability.
Conversely, suppressing excessive activity of the tensor fasciae latae leads to reduced outer thigh tightness and knee strain.
◆ Patented Technology
Patented as 'Hip Joint Function Auxiliary Clothing and Manufacturing Method' (Patent Application 2025-193957).
Based on anatomical and kinematic theoretical design, it realizes a support structure that responds to the 3D movement of the hip joint.
◆ Recommended for these people
■ Yoga and Pilates enthusiasts: For those who struggle with pose stability or experience outer thigh tightness. As support wear that enhances lesson quality 'just by wearing it.'
■ Health-conscious business persons: For those suffering from leg fatigue due to long hours of desk work or standing. As a new habit for 'working healthily.' Also for high performers who are particular about their physical condition.
■ As a Mother's Day gift: Mother's Day 2026 is Sunday, May 10th.
As a new option to give 'health' to hardworking mothers. A practical gift that can be used daily, different from flowers or sweets.
◆ Loved by Experts and Athletes
Recommended by multiple therapists and trainers, including Hiroto Mori, director of Mori Acupuncture and Osteopathic Clinic (210,000 YouTube subscribers).
Also used by corporate marathon runners and RIZIN fighters.
