Are You Experiencing These Symptoms?
- An uncomfortable sensation in your legs at night
- An urge to move your legs before sleep
- Symptoms that worsen when lying down
- Difficulty falling asleep
- Ongoing sleep deprivation
- Feeling tired during the day
At our clinic, we believe restless legs syndrome occurs when rising liver qi does not descend properly.
Normally, as a person falls asleep, the rising liver qi naturally descends, allowing the body to enter sleep.
When liver qi does not descend, the body remains in a state of sympathetic nervous system tension, making it difficult to fall asleep.
Reducing caffeine intake is considered an important part of daily care.
We believe that people often develop a preference for foods and drinks that are not suitable for their condition.
Common examples include:
- Coffee
- Black tea
- Green tea
- Chocolate
Because these are favorite foods or drinks, they are often consumed excessively.
Patients sometimes ask whether avoiding caffeine only at night is sufficient.
However, we recommend avoiding caffeine from the morning onward.
Although this can be difficult at first, many eating habits are strongly influenced by routine.
After about one month, many people naturally lose the desire to consume these foods and drinks every day.
We also believe that the skin over the affected area becomes mildly numb and damaged.
For this reason, treatment also focuses on supporting the recovery of the skin.
By avoiding caffeine, reducing excessive liver qi, and restoring the affected skin, our goal is to relieve the uncomfortable sensations and help patients sleep naturally.
