Magnetic mattress pad

[Yorgi1950]

I suffered for 20 years with RLS then purchased a magnetic mattress pad. I have been totally free of RLS for 25 years now. I know it sounds strange but it worked for me. What works for one does not always work for others but wanted to let everyone know about my experience. Try ProMagnete.com or Nikken.com. ProMagnet is a lot cheaper and has 45 day return policy (Nikken does not) so it may be worth a try. Hope this info helps someone.

Hi papparay46, I will be very interested to see if the magnetic mattress pad works for you, so please keep me informed over the next 2 months. I'm happy to see that you have an open mind and are willing to try anything to solve your RLS. One other person on this site said "there is no scientific proof that magnets work for any ailment" according to an internet site he read. With that type of attitude, he will never find a solution. As I said, what works for one person may not work for another, but you at least have to try. I suffered for years with RLS but I got to try the Nikken mattress pad for 2 weeks and I slept thru the entire night the first night I tried it and for the entire 2 weeks! Needless to say, I bought one immediately and have been RLS free for 25 years. Nikken no longer allows anyone to return it if it doesn't help, so try the ProMagnet.com, which has a 45 day return policy. Hope it helps you. And to anyone else who tries it, please let me know if it works for you. It will be interesting to see how many people it helps.

Hi Yorgi. No problem, I'll keep you posted on how I go on. When it arrives of course!

Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a disorder that causes a strong urge to move one's legs. There is often an unpleasant feeling in the legs that improves somewhat with moving them. Occasionally the arms may also be affected. The feelings generally happen when at rest and therefore can make it hard to sleep. Due to the disturbance in sleep, people with RLS may have daytime sleepiness, low energy, irritability, and a depressed mood. Additionally, many have limb twitching during sleep. Restless leg syndrome may resolve if the underlying problem is addressed. Otherwise treatment includes lifestyle changes and medication.

I have suffered from RLS twice in my life, and both times I cured it quickly with a simple exercise using the exercise machine. There are many exercises you can do with a Bullworker but the one that treats RLS is the one where a foot is placed in both straps on both sides, and then the legs are forced apart against the pressure of the straps that are attached to springs. The strengthening of the leg muscles will alleviate the RLS symptoms in just a few weeks with regular use, just follow the exercise sheet instructions to increase strength in the offending muscles.

I've bought a magnetic mattress and I've used it for the past week. So far I can't say it has helped very much because I've spent so little time in bed. My RLS has been too severe. But it's early days I'll continues to use for the foreseeable.

OK. I hope it will help you. Did you get it from ProMagnet.com? Did they say anything about their 45 day return policy? Keep me informed as to how it works or doesn't work for you. Thanks, Yorgi1950
