Relief From RLS at Bedtime

My husband purchased a hot tub, which sits on the patio just outside our bedroom. Most nights, I go in for about 10 minutes before bed, and it is amazing how it relaxes strained muscles. It gives almost instant relief. If the RLS starts acting up in the middle of the night, I "hop" into the tub again for relief. I come back to bed and fall asleep. I don't know what I would do without the hot tub. The bathtub simply isn't as effective, but if I am somewhere where I have only a bathroom tub, I fill the tub and add -1/4 cup of Epsom Salts, and it does make a difference.

  1. I've had RLS for 40 plus years. I had relief from it when I was able to get opioids. We all know what happened there and I was thrown under the bus along with millions of others in pain.
    Getting any relief from a doctor has been a huge disappointment and I have no regard for the medical field any longer. Nobody seems to care and all the doctors want to do is cover their butts.
    Insurance companies are the worst of the bunch. I currently have no health insurance and I'm so much more happy not having to deal with them. They are useless.
    I went out and decided to find a cure myself because I couldn't trust anyone else and the medical field only wanted my money without giving me any help. I finally found a product that will work and hopefully help millions of others that suffer with the pain and sleepless nights.


    Buy "Cat's Claw Extract" capsules. Make sure you buy the extract, ordinary Cat's Claw will not work. They are not expensive.
    It took me 4 years to find a product that was out there the whole time.
    I have a severe case of RLS and if it cured me, it should cure most people.

    1. Hi . How exciting that you found something that helps after all these years. Thanks for sharing. I hope it continues to be effective for you. As a supplement, cats claw doesn't require FDA approval, but it's known for its potential anti-imflammatory properties, I wonder whether inflammation has been the issue for you all along.
      RLS can have many different causes and that means what helps one person will not always help another. We're also not medical experts in this community, which is why our community rules prohibit the sharing of medical advice (https://health-union.com/community-rules/). I'm glad you shared your experience with cats claw, but it's not safe to tell others they should also take it. Anyone condsidering taking cats claw should check with their doctor first.
      I am so happy for you! Best wishes. - Lori (Team Member)
