Hi Bill,
I am a long time sufferer of restless leg syndrome myself and searched high and low for a cure or home remedy. I came across this site for curing RLS at and found it to be immediately helpful. There are no drugs, no supplements, and no dietary changes. Maybe have a look and see if you think it can help your wife.

Magnesium is the main thing. Stretching as much as you can a little while before you go to bed. Also I use warm milk with a spoon of peanut butter to help me go to sleep, also melatonin helps.

Restless leg syndrome may have a variety of causes. Your health care practitioner should be able to test for magnesium or iron deficiencies which often cause leg cramping and spasms. Also, massage and energetic relaxation therapies before bed are often helpful if the symptoms occur during the night.
