What is the difference between grounding & earthing?

Earthing and Grounding both involve reconnecting to the Earth's subtle, natural energy, and these terms are often used interchangeably.

However, some individuals make a distinction between the two. They use "Earthing" to describe the act of directly connecting the body to the Earth's surface with direct skin contact, like walking barefoot on the ground. On the other hand, "Grounding" is often used in the context of connecting electrical devices to the Earth to prevent electrical shocks and hazards, which is a different application entirely. While this differentiation may be relevant to electricians or engineers, for most people, the terms can be used interchangeably when referring to connecting to the Earth's surface for health and wellness benefits.

Reconnecting to the Earth's energy is as simple as walking barefoot outside on grass, sand, or concrete.

Alternatively, you can achieve grounding by using the original, time-tested, durable, and safe Groundletic brand products, also known as "barefoot substitutes." You can learn more about these products on our site.

What makes Groundletic different from regular bedsheets?

Groundletic bedsheets feature our proprietary silver-infused conductive grid technology that connects you to Earth's natural energy. Unlike regular sheets, they're engineered with premium-grade conductive fibers woven into soft, organic cotton, creating a direct pathway for beneficial Earth electrons to support your recovery.

How long does the grounding effect last?

The grounding effect works continuously as long as you're in contact with the sheet and it's properly connected to a grounded outlet. The conductive properties of our sheets don't diminish over time, ensuring consistent performance throughout the product's lifespan.

Do I need special outlets or electrical modifications?

No special modifications are needed. Groundletic products work with any properly grounded three-prong outlet. Each product includes an outlet checker so you can easily verify if your outlet is correctly grounded.

Is there any electricity flowing through the sheet?

No. Groundletic products only connect to the grounding port of your outlet, which carries no electricity. Our technology includes built-in safety features that ensure only Earth's natural electrons transfer through the sheet, while a 50k Ohm safety resistor provides additional protection.

What size sheets do you offer?

Universal size 8.6 ft x 2 ft (265x60cm) fits any bed (Single, Double, Queen, King, Californian King)

Can I use it with any mattress type?

Yes, Groundletic sheets are compatible with all mattress types including memory foam, spring, latex, and adjustable beds. The conductive technology works effectively regardless of mattress material or thickness.

Is grounding technology safe?

Yes, grounding technology is completely safe. Our products feature multiple safety mechanisms, including a built-in 50k Ohm safety resistor and exclusive connection to the ground port of your outlet. The technology simply facilitates the same natural connection you'd get from walking barefoot on the Earth.

Can I use this if I have a pacemaker or other medical device?

While grounding is generally safe, we recommend consulting your healthcare provider before using any grounding products if you have a pacemaker or other electrical medical devices. They can provide personalized guidance based on your specific situation.

Is it safe to use during thunderstorms?

Yes. Our products include built-in surge protection and safety resistors that protect against electrical events. However, as a precautionary measure, you may unplug the grounding connection during severe electrical storms if desired.

What about EMF & magnetic exposure?

Groundletic products don't generate or increase EMF & magnetic exposure. In fact, grounding may help neutralize the effects of environmental EMFs by providing a natural pathway to Earth. Our products are thoroughly tested to ensure they don't conduct any harmful electromagnetic fields.

How long until I notice results?

Many users report feeling more relaxed and sleeping better from the first night. However, the full benefits of grounding typically develop over 2-4 weeks of consistent use. Since everyone's body responds differently, some may experience benefits sooner, while others might take longer to notice significant changes.

Do I need to use it every night?

For optimal results, we recommend using your Groundletic sheet nightly. Regular grounding supports your body's natural recovery processes most effectively. However, you'll still benefit from grounding even if you use it intermittently.

Can I feel the grounding working?

The grounding effect itself is subtle - you won't feel any tingling or electrical sensations. Instead, you'll likely notice gradual improvements in sleep quality, recovery time, and overall well-being. Some users report feeling more relaxed and balanced after consistent use.

What's the science behind grounding?

Grounding works by transferring Earth's free electrons into your body. These electrons act as natural antioxidants, helping neutralize inflammation-causing factors and supporting various biological processes. This mimics our ancestral connection to Earth's surface, which modern lifestyles have largely eliminated.

Are there any clinical studies supporting these benefits?

Yes, multiple peer-reviewed studies have documented the benefits of grounding. Research has shown positive effects on inflammation, sleep, recovery, and various other physiological markers. We maintain a database of scientific studies on our website's research section.

How do I know if my outlet is properly grounded?

Each Groundletic product includes a professional Conductive Pen tester to verify proper grounding connection. Simply plug in your bedsheet, touch the pen to the silver grid, and if the indicator light illuminates, your connection is working correctly. If the light doesn't illuminate, this indicates your outlet may not be properly grounded, and we recommend consulting a licensed electrician. You can also use multimeter or voltmeter.

How do I clean and maintain the Groundletic Grounding Bedsheet?

Your Groundletic sheets contain silver thread which is naturally antibacterial and odor resistant. This means it will require less washing than regular sheets. However, it is important to keep the sheets clean from sweat and natural skin oils to preserve its conductivity.

DO's:
* Wash your sheets twice per month or whenever needed
* Hand wash recommended, or machine wash on gentle cycle
* Use cold water only
* Airdry only, do not tumble dry
* Wait for one hour after applying lotions or body oils before touching the sheets.

DON'Ts:
* Do not wash with bleach or fabric softener.
* Avoid using whitening detergents or oxi-detergents.
* Do not use detergents containing oils such as lavender or coconut oil.
* Avoid using dryer sheets.
* Do not apply lotions or body oils on your skin right before bed.
* Do not Iron
* Do not tumble dry

Please note that using any of the products listed above could damage the silver threads and reduce the effectiveness of the sheets or make them nonconductive. By adhering to these guidelines, you can maintain the conductive properties of your Groundletic sheets and enjoy their health benefits for a longer period of time.

Our sheets are designed to be highly usable, making your Earthing experience truly enjoyable.

Can I use the grounding products during winter time?

Yes, winter time is the perfect time to use indoor grounding products. Avoid the harsh weather outside and ground in the comfort of your own home!

How does grounding affect dogs, cats & other indoor animals?

Pets, just like humans, can greatly benefit from grounding, especially if they spend most of their time indoors and lack opportunities to connect with the Earth's electrons, unlike their wild counterparts.

Grounding offers similar advantages to pets as it does to humans. In fact, if you place an Earthing sheet on your bed, pets often gravitate towards it instinctively.

Grounding can contribute to reducing inflammation, enhancing circulation, and stimulating collagen production, among other benefits. These positive effects also extend to the health and well-being of indoor animals. Additionally, Grounding may help alleviate stress and anxiety in indoor pets.

Many customers have observed that their pets are naturally drawn to grounded bedsheets and other products.. They seem to sense something beneficial and familiar, even though they cannot verbally express it. Their actions and responses serve as a testament to the benefits they experience.

What plug type should I select?

This will vary depending on your what country you live in:

Canada and the United States:
Select the "USA Plug" option. This option does not come with an adaptor. This is because our grounding wire is designed to plug directly into the bottom hole of your socket, which is the grounding socket, without the need for an adaptor.

United Kingdom:
Select the "UK Plug" option.

Germany, France, and other EU countries:
Select the "EU Plug" option

Australia and New Zealand:
Select the "AU/ NZ Plug" option

Singapore:
Singapore uses the "UK Plug", so please select that option

Malaysia:
Malaysia typically uses the "UK Plug"

Indonesia:
Indonesia has 2 plug types: type C and type F. The type F plug is the same as "EU Plug".

*Please note we cannot support Type C sockets as they are not grounded.

Will it work if I live in an apartment?

Yes. All our grounding products are fully functional in high-rise apartments. Regardless of your floor level, the grounding socket will remain properly grounded.

Can I put a regular sheet over the grounding sheet?

For optimal results, Grounding works best when your bare skin directly contacts the grounded Groundletic products.

While some of the Earth's energy can pass through thin layers if there is moisture present, skin contact remains the most effective method (even just a fingertip can work in nature).

We advise against using another sheet on top of the Grounding sheet, as it may interfere with conductivity. Rest assured, our Grounding sheets are designed to be highly comfortable for sleeping, and regular washing is recommended to ensure the best results.

Will it work through pajamas or had to be direct skin contact?

Indeed, you can wear pajamas while sleeping on Groundletic sheets. While direct skin contact optimizes the grounding benefits, it's not necessary to sleep naked on the sheet. Comfortable pajamas or sleepwear are perfectly fine as long as there are body parts in direct contact with the sheet, such as arms, legs, or feet.

However, it's worth noting that having uncovered areas of skin in direct contact with the grounding sheet provides more targeted grounding benefits. This can be particularly advantageous if you have specific areas of concern that could benefit from the grounding process, as it may expedite the healing process in those regions.

For enhanced conductivity and effectiveness, it is generally recommended to use the grounding sheet directly on your mattress or bedding without an additional sheet on top. This allows for better direct contact with the grounding material, maximizing the grounding experience.

In conclusion, the key is to have certain areas of your body in contact with the grounding sheet during sleep. You can choose what feels most comfortable for you while ensuring that direct skin contact is established in those specific areas to achieve the desired benefits of grounding.
