What is Restless Leg Syndrome?Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS), also known as Willis-Ekbom disease, is a common neurological disorder characterized by an overwhelming urge to move the legs, often accompanied by uncomfortable sensations. People with RLS typically experience these sensations in the late afternoon or evening, making it difficult to relax or fall asleep. The sensations can vary in intensity and often feel like crawling, tingling, or itching. This can lead to significant sleep disturbances and impact overall quality of life. How can Acupuncture help?Acupuncture is an effective method for managing the symptoms of Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS) by targeting specific points in the body. This practice promotes harmony and balance, which can help alleviate some of the symptoms associated with RLS. Additionally, acupuncture enhances blood flow and improves circulation in the legs. It also assists in relaxing the muscles and relieving the tension that many patients with RLS experience. Furthermore, acupuncture can reduce stress levels, which often contribute to the condition. Dr. Zamora not only understands the challenges of RLS but also works to ensure that you feel heard and supported throughout your treatment journey. What is the experience like during an acupuncture treatment?An acupuncture session at Zamora Acupuncture for treating restless leg syndrome begins with a comprehensive consultation. During this consultation, Dr. Zamora will gather detailed information about your symptoms, health history, and lifestyle to tailor the treatment specifically to your needs. Once the consultation is complete, you will relax in a comfortable treatment room. Dr. Zamora will identify key acupuncture points related to your condition, which may include points on the legs and other areas of the body believed to influence leg sensations and overall well-being.
