Yes absolutely!  You can either sleep directly on carbon-infused mat, or you can place a 100% natural fibre bedsheet over the top and you’ll still be grounded.  Natural fibres allow the electrons to flow so fibres such as 100% cotton, linen or bamboo are perfect.  Please be mindful that if you do also wear clothing to bed to still have some skin showing to enable you to make that ground connection.

The black conductive carbon side should face up and be closest to the skin.

Grounding makes the physiology function more efficiently, and this improvement has the potential to affect medication doses.  For example, we know that it has a blood thinning effect, may improve thyroid function, blood sugar, and blood pressure, therefore medication dosages may need to be closely monitored and possibly adjusted.  We recommend speaking to your GP or medical advisor in the first instance.

If you wear 100% natural fibres then you will still be grounded but the most important thing is to try and show some skin to improve the ground connection.  Consider wearing short sleeves or shorts if at all possible to maximise skin exposure.

Everybody is different and there is no right or wrong response.  Many people feel better from the start, they have more energy and less pain.  Some can feel temporary symptoms of detoxification as the body starts to function more efficiently.

Most people begin to feel relief or more energy pretty quickly, however some people may feel temporary discomfort or even flu-like symptoms, cramps or soreness.  The effects tend to be as a result of a more efficient functioning of the body’s own self-healing and detoxification mechanisms.  The discomfort could last a few days, weeks or even long for people with compromised health. As the discomfort fades, you start to feel better and energised.  If you find this period of adjustment too uncomfortable, we recommend reducing the amount of time you spend grounding, and slowly add more time as your body settles.

Grounding is a natural thing to do for humans and animals and as such, there are no magic lights, buttons or whizzy tech to show us what is going on inside our body.
So it’s a really common question that we get asked as to whether being grounded is “working” even if the person doesn’t “feel” anything, and it’s completely understandable.

The short answer is……YES! It is working.

Whether you are barefoot on the grass or using one of our indoor grounding products, you ARE getting all the health benefits.

When we consider our whole body, there may be no immediate change, feeling or sensation occurring to us but when we delve into the cellular level, there’s lots and lots going on.

Your blood begins to flow more freely, your nervous system is calmed, and inflammation is being quashed with the flood of electrons throughout our body.

For many medical conditions, by the time you notice symptoms, it has already been rumbling away for a long time and taken time to establish.

So when healing begins through your cells, it’s natural for things to take a while to improve to the point where you notice a change or an improvement yourself.

It can feel frustrating when you first begin grounding and you don’t “feel” the immediate benefits, however keep going with it.

Try and make it part of your daily routine if at all possible – your body will thank you for it in the long term.

When a single cell heals or thrives you won’t notice that, but over time this becomes a cumulative effect and your body will begin to function better and you will notice the difference.

Yes you can use an electric blanket as long as it is in good working order.  We suggest warming up your blanket before getting in to bed and then turning it off to minimise exposure to EMFs.  However whether these products are on or off will not alter the proper functioning of the grounding mattress cover or alter the benefits you get from it.  Always make sure the electric blanket is underneath the grounding sleep mat.

Homes are rarely hit by lightening but when this does happen, it usually takes the path of least resistance to the ground, and we recommend that you follow the standard lightening safety guidelines which is to disconnect all devices (including grounding products) from your wall socket.

No.

Earthing products and the cords that connect them are designed only to conduct the Earth’s energy to you.

They do not conduct any electric power that operates your lights and appliances. You connect your Earthing product to the ground (earth) contact of a wall outlet or to a ground rod planted in the soil outside.

All Earthing cords have a built-in 100 Kilo-Ohms resistor restricting the current to a safe limit in the unlikely case of an electric current flowing into the grounding wire such as when you touch a metallic object or appliance that is electrically charged due to a short-circuit in it.
