Frequently asked questions
A grounding mat is designed to connect you to the Earth's natural electrical charge, a practice known as grounding or earthing. It typically consists of conductive materials that transfer the Earth's energy to your body, helping balance your electrical state and promote wellness.
You can clean the Grounding Mat using mild soap and water. Gently wipe it down with a damp cloth to maintain its conductivity. Avoid using harsh chemicals.
Maintaining hydration, moisturizing skin, and regular exfoliation can improve grounding effectiveness by supporting better conductivity:
Stay Hydrated: Proper hydration supports conductivity. Drinking plenty of water and adding trace minerals or sea salt can enhance cellular hydration.
Moisturise Skin: Moisturised skin conducts electrons more effectively. Apply lotion after showering but wait an hour before grounding to avoid interference.
Exfoliate Regularly: Removing dead skin cells through dry brushing or using a loofa helps maintain skin health and conductivity.
These practices can help you maximize the benefits of grounding products.
Results may become evident within 24 hours for some people, while others may take weeks to notice changes. It's crucial to remember that grounding isn't a cure for diseases; instead, it aims to restore your natural electrical balance. Generally, the longer you remain connected, the more benefits you may encounter, but individual responses can vary.
No, the Grounding Mat does not use electricity. It connects to a grounded outlet or grounding rod to transfer the Earth’s natural energy to your body.
Many people use the Grounding Mat to alleviate chronic pain, reduce inflammation, and improve joint health. Grounding helps neutralize free radicals, which can contribute to pain and inflammation.
There is no such thing as being excessively grounded. (However, becoming ungrounded too frequently is a real concern!)
Initially, some people may experience temporary discomfort, such as cramps or soreness, which typically lasts a few days to weeks. From years of experience, we’ve observed that these effects often stem from the body's improved self-healing and detoxification processes. As the discomfort fades, you’ll start to feel better and more energised. To ease the adjustment, gradually increase your grounding exposure to let your body slowly adapt to Earth's energy. If discomfort persists, pause grounding and resume with shorter periods until your body fully acclimates.
Yes, the Grounding Mat is made from eco-friendly, non-toxic materials and is completely safe for daily use.
There is no set time limit, but many users benefit from using it for at least 30 minutes daily. The more time you spend grounded, the greater the health benefits.
Feeling tingling while grounding is quite common and usually reflects the body's natural response to connecting with the Earth's energy. Here’s why you might experience this:
Electron Flow: The tingling often results from electrons moving between your body and the Earth. This indicates that grounding is actively balancing your body’s charge.
Increased Circulation: Grounding can improve blood flow, especially to areas with reduced circulation, causing sensations like tingling or warmth.
Energy Redistribution: Grounding redistributes the body’s energy, sometimes felt as tingling as your body adjusts to this balance.
Heightened Awareness: Grounding can make you more aware of subtle body sensations, making tingling more noticeable.
Skin Contact: Direct contact with conductive surfaces, like grounding mats, can amplify this sensation.
Tingling may decrease over time as your body adapts. If it’s mild, it’s typically a normal response, but if you have concerns, consult a healthcare provider.
Grounding Mat products are a convenient and safe way to get grounded for more hours each day.
Our ancestors walked barefoot on the earth, wrapped their feet in conductive leather, and slept on animal hides on the ground. Such practices were part of the ordinary way of life throughout history. Our ancestors were always grounded. This is the ideal but no longer how we all live.
We rarely go outside barefoot, except as kids romping in the summer, or when we're at the beach. We wear insulated shoes and we sleep on elevated beds inside our insulted houses.
Grounding products were created to address the issue of comfort, convenience, reality, and practicality. The products are basically “extension cords” that bring the Earth’s energy from outside into the office and home, simulating being barefoot outside. They were developed to satisfy the growing requests from people wanting to sleep, work, or relax while grounded indoors.
