Drug-free doesn't equal risk free or better then drugs. Most devices and "herbal" supplements (which are actually still drugs) do not work well at all. I myself having RLS with early symptoms even at 14 know that those devices either they work to a minimal degree or not work at all with just a placebo effect only. These 'supposed' drug free, natural, tested, and powerful stuff is just a way to be able to charge lots of money cause they try and scare you away from all drugs, granted some meds are bad but with some things like RLS it is a good thing. With RLS I would totally reccomend just talking to a doctor, and discuss possible side effects, cause RLS is pretty ********************ing awful to have. I have had great results with treating my RLS that is almost always before bed by taking a muscle relaxant/anticonvulsant before I lay down with great results and little trouble except that I am slightly dependent on them to be able to sleep right.
