Abstract

A 26 years old female diagnosed with Restless leg syndrome with complains of irresistible urge to move lower limbs during night times, difficulty in falling asleep during night times, fatigue during day time, and depression for 2 years has visited Travancore Ayurveda, a panchakarma clinic. Based on clinical features it was considered under Vata vyadhi. This condition occurs more frequently in females and common in young age. There are no specific tests for RLS, but non-specific laboratory tests are used to rule out other causes such as vitamin deficiencies. In the present paper we are presenting a case successfully treated with different Ayurvedic treatments for a period of 28 days. After the treatment patient was on oral medications for a period of 90 days. After the treatment the patient is feeling much better and relieved from above complains.
