At night, the legs turn itchy and strangely uneasy.
Lie still and it worsens; move them, and for a moment it eases.
The tests come back clean — nothing wrong — and still the symptoms go on.
This book doesn't treat restless legs syndrome as a problem of the nerves or the brain alone. It reads the condition across the whole connected body — pelvis, hip, buttock, thigh, calf, and sole — and takes on the questions that usually go unanswered: why the symptoms sharpen at night, why walking helps, why sitting for hours is so hard to bear.
It works through the muscles tied to restless legs — the iliopsoas, piriformis, gluteus maximus and minimus, adductors, hamstrings, gastrocnemius, and soleus — and lays out self-care you can do for yourself, at home.
This isn't a book that explains a disease.
It's a book for understanding why your body keeps sending these signals, and for bringing its movement and balance back.
