The Drug-Free Restless Legs Syndrome Handbook

This author has suffered with a severe form of RLS for most of my adult life. The non-drug strategies employed and recommended in this handbook have been unearthed and refined out of my desperation for a reasonable night's sleep--all stemming from my varied experiences, my medical background, and the input from countless other RLS sufferers. The approaches detailed in this text range from the taxing inconvenience of an isometric exercise in the middle of the night to the ridiculously simple placement of a common household item onto the instep of your foot. Each strategy described has its own merits (including one with a 90% success rate in a proven medical study) and, conversely, weaknesses. Similarly, each individual is different. Hence, each reader will need to experiment with the various tactics to find which work best for you.
