    Hi! Im sorry youve been dealing with restless leg syndrome. Acupuncture can be helpful with regulating the autonomic nervous system. Basically, this means it can assist the body from a state of fight or flight (sympathetic nervous system) to a state of rest and digest (parasympathetic nervous system).
