Homeopathic Treatment for Restless Leg Syndrome

Restless Leg Syndrome, wherein unpleasant sensations in the legs disturb the day and interrupt sleep, can be effectively treated by several homeopathic remedies. Choose a remedy that best matches the emotional and physical symptoms experienced.

  1. Causticum

    • This remedy is best suited to those with a history of muscle pain. They are often sensitive, easily stressed, and feel burning and aching leg pain, with cramps in the feet and calves.

    Aconitum napellus

    • When sleep is compromised by an inability to relax, and fraught with nightmares, Aconitum is indicated. Anxiety and tingling pains in the legs are typically present.

    Ignatia amara

    • When symptoms coincide with grief, Ignatia can be beneficial. Hypersensitivity, displayed as unexpected crying or laughing fits, is agitated by light sleep and leg spasms. Frequent yawning or sighing is common.

    Sulphur

    • Sulphur can be beneficial for burning pain that is accompanied by heat in the legs and that leads to restlessness. Other indications for this remedy are twitching muscles, and talking during intermittent sleep. Forgetfulness, irritability, and general weakness indicate the need for this remedy.

    Zincum

    • Zincum is best used for extreme cases with the constant need to move, talk, and think. Exhaustion can lead to depression, and symptoms are exacerbated by alcohol.
