RLS causes unpleasant sensations in the extremities, accompanied by a strong urge to move one’s limbs. For many patients, it is also associated with insomnia and an unpleasant crawling sensation. In addition to RLS coping strategies and medication, the Southern California Pulmonary and Sleep Disorders Medical Center has added a drug-free therapy option using Relaxis, an FDA-cleared vibrating counter-stimulation pad.
According to the National Institutes of Health, up to 10 percent of Americans suffer from RLS. While the cause of primary RLS is unknown, secondary RLS is typically associated with an underlying medical cause.
Dr. Ronald A. Popper and his team work closely with patients to identify and treat the underlying causes responsible for RLS. Medical treatments include courses of vitamin replenishments, GABA receptor agonists, dopamine agonists, anti-seizure medication, analgesics, and sleeping pills. A patient’s symptoms may also be alleviated through lifestyle changes, such as cutting back on caffeine or exercising regularly.
Because secondary RLS arises from underlying conditions, the center’s staff offers a variety of treatments to diminish these conditions. As the treatment is unique for each patient, the center prioritizes attentive, individualized care.
With the latest expansion of its services, the center strives to find the right solution for a patient’s symptoms. In addition to treating RLS, the Southern California Pulmonary and Sleep Disorders Medical Center also specializes in treating sleep disorders such as sleep apnea and insomnia.
