Hi @workswithclay29 , It is possible that your leg cramps are actually a result of lumbar spine issues. I stretch my spine by doing a yoga pose called "active child's pose" Once I am in the pose, I hold it for as long as I can feel the stretch in the lower spine. It is important to try to push your butt to your heels to get the best stretch. You can google yoga poses to find something that shows you this easy pose. I wish you good luck getting this under control. It is horrible to have our sleep so disturbed.

Thank you for replying. Uncanny but yes I have lumbar spinal issues. Next month I will undergo a "burning" of the lumbar nerves to relieve pain. The surgeon, however, said that the procedure would not relieve the leg/foot cramps. He said to take a multivitamin and stay hydrated. Both I already do! Today I will add the yoga pose you suggested to my exercise routine. Thank you again!
