Homeopaths treat the whole person and not just the disorder or symptoms people have. We give individual treatments that act by stimulating the body to heal itself. Ten people, all of whom have the same diagnosis, eg Restless Legs Syndrome may each need a different remedy because it is the person and not the disease that is being treated. It is therefore possible to treat someone homeopathically when the diagnosis of the illness is unknown or unclear.
There are a great many remedies which could be used to help with resless legs syndrome. It will depend on the individual which one is most likely to be of use to them. Here are a few of the major remdies which may be needed and a brief "picture" of how the complaint may present.
