How to cure restless legs during night time?

A web search in Yahoo for "restless legs syndrome" + "natural remedies" will yield at least 2,464 results.

You go to the doc and try one of the prescription meds available for RLS.

There are several drugs available for restless leg syndrome. Ask your doctor. Requip is one possible drug.

Try eating 5 tums (for calcium) every day for a week. If your restless legs settle down....your problem is due to a calcium deficiency.

My mother had this years ago, and she wrapped her legs in ACE bandages....it seemed to help her.

You can always head for the doctor, and jump on the prescription bandwagon.

There are several prescription drugs out on the market which are meant to help reduce the symptoms of Restless Leg Syndrome.

However, you should definitely talk to a qualified doctor.

Also, there's a free, online (24/7), support site out there which has a user-based ranking system of medicines and other treatments for Restless Leg Syndrome. It's simple, there's a ranked list showing which treatment worked how well for people that have tried it (the treatment). To see the list, check out DailyStrength.org The site also allows people to just discuss and chat with other people about Restless Leg Syndrome (and other maladies). Sometimes it may just be best to just vent with someone who knows what you're going through!

Otherwise, wikipedia has a list of treatments for Restless Leg Syndrome, such as: Finding the right amount of exercise, not smoking or drinking, balanced diet, adding supplements, etc. Just go to wiki and query "Restless Leg Syndrome".

Regardless of what you do, again, be sure to see a qualified physician.

Good Luck!

Like another answerer noted, ace bandages wrapped around the legs seems to help. Pressure around the feet and lower legs helps with the twitching and jumpy feeling. My mom has restless legs (almost always worse when she's really tired) and wears tight wool socks or sometimes Ted socks (which are tight polyester socks that help circulation in the legs and feet) at night or in other situations where she won't be able to move around much (like on the plane).
