What is periodic limb movement disorder (PLMD)?

Restless nights may be more than restlessness.

PLMD causes involuntary leg or arm movements during sleep that can fragment rest without you even realizing it. At Whitney Sleep Center, we use advanced diagnostic tools and proven treatments to reduce disturbances and help you sleep more soundly.

Signs you may have PLMD:

  • Unexplained daytime fatigue or drowsiness
  • Leg twitching or jerking noticed by a sleep partner
  • Frequent awakenings or disrupted sleep
  • Difficulty staying asleep despite healthy sleep habits

How We Can Help:
Our sleep specialists may recommend an overnight sleep study to monitor and identify limb movements during sleep. Based on your results, we create a tailored treatment plan which may include medication, lifestyle adjustments, or addressing related conditions such as iron deficiency or sleep apnea.

You Are Not Alone:
With the right support and care, PLMD can be managed effectively so you can wake up feeling truly rested.
