Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY

Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) is a prevalent sensorimotor disorder affecting pregnant women, particularly in the third trimester, and is associated with sleep disturbances, fatigue and reduced quality of life. Non-pharmacological strategies such as stretching and strength training offer promising alternatives during pregnancy. This randomized controlled trial aims to compare the effects of static stretching alone and static stretching combined with strength training on sleep quality, symptom severity and fatigue in antenatal women with RLS. Thirty pregnant women meeting the diagnostic criteria for RLS will be recruited from National Hospital and medical center and randomly assigned into two groups. Group A will receive static stretching exercises, while Group B will receive static stretching and lower limb strength training exercises for 6 weeks, three sessions per week. Data will be analyzed using SPSS, with a p-value \< 0.05 considered statistically significant.
