Can't keep still.

An estimated 40 to 70 million people in Europe suffer from  Restless-Legs-Syndrom (RLS), making sleep a struggle. When the body wants to rest, tingling sensations in the arms or legs appear, turning the night into a nightmare. Scientists are increasingly investigating the causes of this neurological disorder, which is thought to result from a combination of genetic and environmental factors. A common finding is dysfunction in the brain’s dopamine metabolism, disrupting the neurotransmitter responsible for regulating movement.

While the direct health effects of RLS are unclear, the indirect consequences of chronic sleep deprivation can severely impact quality of life and life expectancy. Many sufferers endure...

Severe restless legs after a pelvic fracture.

"The gel from Kalter Bruder® is pretty close to being a miracle cure - I was able to stop taking Levod*** completely and reduce the dose of Oxy**** significantly. Pro tip: it works best after a shower."

Christian, 88 from Marktheidenfeld Kalter Bruder® fan since 09/2023

Restless legs with sleep disorders for 4 years.

"After taking Levod*** and no longer being able to bear the side effects, I discovered Kalter Bruder®. I was able to stop the pills immediately and finally sleep through the night again."

Sabine, 60 from NRW Kalter Bruder® fan since 03/2022

Sleep disorders with restless legs during on-call duty.

“Since 1988, my legs have been stabbing, twitching, and tingling. In 2005, I discovered Rotigotine patches, which provided relief. Today, I also use Kalter Bruder® gel and hardly have any issues anymore.”

Sabine, 76 from Rügen Kalter Bruder® fan since 07/2023

Hans, 90 from Lower Saxony Kalter Bruder® fan since 06/2023

Burning feet – tried so many things.

Judith, 32 from Vienna Kalter Bruder® fan since 11/2022

Hot feet like sunburn on the soles.

“Without exaggeration, Kalter Bruder® has truly changed my life – the polyneuropathy in my feet and legs is improving, and the cooling effect completely eliminates pain and twitching.”

Daniela, 52 from Idstein Kalter Bruder® fan since 07/2021

Polyneuropathy triggered by chemotherapy (by Oxali***).

"My night pain disappeared immediately and since then I have been using it every morning and evening. I now even feel a general relief in my feet, legs and hands."

Matthias, 66 from Wetzlar Kalter Bruder® fan since 09/2023

Polyneuropathy from the hip to the foot.

“Since I started using Kalter Bruder®, I’ve been able to significantly reduce my medication intake, and I hope this amazing product can help as many people as possible”

Gebhard from Verl Kalter Bruder® fan since 09/2023

Barely any sensation in the lower leg after chemotherapy.

"My husband was punished twice with restless legs and polyneuropathy. However, daily rubbing with Kalter Bruder® stimulates blood circulation again and the twitching has almost disappeared - we are delighted!"

Sandra & Ruud S. from Baar (Switzerland) Cold Brother© Fans since 11/2022

Polyneuropathy worsens after chemotherapy.

"The doctors recommended that I use menthol and that's how I came across the gel. I'm absolutely thrilled and no longer have night attacks, cramps or pain."

1. Nutrition

One of the most valuable and sustainable things you can do for your body when dealing with Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) is to maintain the right diet. You can take control from within and see the difference it makes. Here are the key elements of a beneficial diet:

Omega-3 fatty acids:
These anti-inflammatory fatty acids are found in oily fish such as salmon, mackerel and sardines, as well as in flaxseed, chia seeds and walnuts.

Leafy green vegetables:
Spinach, kale and other dark green leafy vegetables are rich in vitamins and minerals that are important for nerve health.

Whole grain products:
Whole grains such as whole wheat bread, brown rice, and oats are rich in B vitamins,...

2. Yoga

Yoga is certainly one of the healthier and also very successful therapeutic approaches for treating RLS. In principle, of course, the following applies: movement is the be-all and end-all – regardless of whether it is yoga, swimming, going for a walk or muscle training.
Here are a few things that regular yoga (or exercise) can do for you.

Stress reduction:

Yoga is known for its relaxing effect, which can reduce stress and anxiety. Stress is a known factor that can worsen restless legs. So by reducing stress, restless legs can also be alleviated.

Improved blood flow:

Many yoga poses increase blood flow throughout the body. Improved blood flow can help soothe inflamed or irritated...

3. Magnesium Citrate

Magnesium is often used for Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS), but unfortunately, the wrong type is frequently chosen. First, let’s take a look at what magnesium can actually do:

Muscle Relaxation:

Magnesium promotes muscle relaxation by inhibiting the binding of calcium to muscles, which normally triggers contraction. This relaxation can help reduce physical discomfort that might otherwise interfere with sleep. It may also help alleviate RLS symptoms by reducing muscle cramps and restlessness.

Nervous System Support:

Magnesium influences the nervous system and can have a calming effect—particularly beneficial for RLS, which is often linked to nerve overactivity. Magnesium acts as a natural calcium channel blocker within the nervous system. Since calcium plays a key...

4. Cold therapy

The application of cold to restless legs has interesting effects on the nervous system that can help alleviate symptoms. To understand how this works, it helps to look at the body's physiological responses to cold. So what happens to the nerves when cold is applied?

Slowing of nerve conduction velocity:

Cold slows the transmission speed of nerve impulses. In the extremities, this can reduce unpleasant sensations such as tingling, burning or pain. The nerves are less ‘reactive’, which can lead to a certain calming of the symptoms.

Reducing the inflammatory response:

Although inflammation is not necessarily a primary factor in RLS, an accompanying inflammatory response in the legs can contribute to symptom intensification....
