Assuming that you're referring to RLS, it might be worth checking out the website of the relevant charity to see what they can suggest: https://www.rls-uk.org/
I almost went crazy with irritable leg syndrome a couple of years ago. Every time I settled, it started and it would stop me getting off to sleep. I tried massaging my legs as that was suggested with something I read but it didn't work for me. I then stumbled across an article and it suggested to take a Magnesium supplement. I checked with my GP it was ok with other meds. I bought the effervescent Voost brand, available in several places including Superdrug. It wasn't an overnight fix but it helped me. Maybe worth a try for your mum
maybe I should have said "Restless Leg Syndrome"
Some medications can cause this. Is she on any particular one?
