Earthing Research

Researchers are investigating the potential link between earthing and inflammation.  Some preliminary studies suggest that earthing may influence physiological processes related to pain and inflammation. While these findings are promising and further research is underway, more studies are needed to understand the potential health benefits of earthing fully. 

Check out some of the most promising research papers, including double-blind tests and peer-reviewed studies into Earthing. 

📜 The research paper explores the positive effects of grounding (electrically conductive contact with the Earth) on human physiology and health, particularly inflammation, immune response, wound healing, and chronic inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. The paper emphasises the importance of the duration and degree of grounding.

The paper concludes that grounding produces measurable differences in the concentrations of white blood cells, cytokines, and other molecules involved in the inflammatory response and positively affects pain reduction and immune response in muscle injury.

Grounding - The universal anti-inflammatory remedy


📜 Discover the benefits of Earthing (grounding) - better sleep, reduced inflammation, pain and stress, and improved blood flow. A study found that just one hour of contact with the Earth can significantly improve blood circulation, promoting autonomic nervous system control and enhancing facial tissue repair and skin health. Try Earthing for yourself and optimize your appearance from the inside out. 

One-Hour Contact with the Earth’s Surface (Grounding) Improves Inflammation and Blood Flow—A Randomized, Double-Blind, Pilot Study


📜 This study investigated the effectiveness of grounding, or direct contact with the Earth, as a non-pharmacological therapy for treating sleep disturbances, anxiety, and depression in patients with mild Alzheimer's disease. The results showed that grounding significantly improved sleep quality compared to the placebo group. 

Grounding the Body Improves Sleep Quality in Patients with Mild Alzheimer’s Disease: A Pilot Study


📜 Grounded sleeping helps with recovery by maintaining constant hemoconcentration and reducing muscle damage inflammation markers.

Effectiveness of Grounded Sleeping on Recovery After Intensive Eccentric Muscle Loading


📜 The study found that grounding had consistent beneficial effects on pain, physical function, and mood, which are highly relevant to massage therapists. Previous results from the same trial also showed improvements in inflammatory biomarkers, blood viscosity, and heart rate variability, suggesting that grounding can benefit massage therapists in multiple domains relevant to their occupation and overall health and quality of life. 

The Effects of Grounding (Earthing) on Bodyworkers’ Pain and Overall Quality of Life: A Randomized Controlled Trial


📜 The study investigated the effects of grounding on high blood pressure in a pilot case history series. Patients grounded themselves at home for at least 10 hours per day for several months, and their blood pressure was measured at baseline and at regular intervals. Results showed significant improvements in all 10 patients, with an average decrease of 14.3% in systolic levels. The study suggests that grounding is a safe and effective therapy for reducing blood pressure and warrants further research. 

Grounding Patients with Hypertension Improves Blood Pressure: A Case History Series Study 2018


📜 This study aimed to investigate whether grounding in the presence of electromagnetic fields (EMFs) found in a typical housing environment produces harmful currents in the human body. Fifty participants were involved in the study, and the results showed that grounding significantly reduced AC body voltage, and the AC currents generated during grounding were much lower than the minimum level of perception. Therefore, the study concluded that normal levels of EMFs present in houses do not produce harmful currents when a person is grounded. 

Effects of Grounding on Body Voltage and Current in the Presence of Electromagnetic Fields


📜 This study examined the effect of 1 hour of grounding on blood viscosity during yoga exercises in 28 participants. Subjects were grounded or sham-grounded with a grounded yoga mat, and blood was taken pre and post-exercise to measure viscosity. Subjects grounded to the earth had significantly reduced post-exercise systolic and diastolic blood viscosity. The study suggests that grounding has the ability to affect exercise-induced inflammation, thereby reducing blood viscosity.


Grounding the Human Body during Yoga Exercise with a Grounded Yoga Mat Reduces Blood Viscosity


📜 This study investigated the effects of grounding after moderate eccentric contractions on pain, creatine kinase (CK), and complete blood counts. Results showed that grounding significantly reduced CK loss from injured muscles, indicating reduced muscle damage. Grounding also produced changes in blood counts not observed in the sham-grounded group, warranting further study on the effects of earthing on delayed onset muscle damage. 

Grounding after moderate eccentric contractions reduces muscle damage

 

📜 This study investigated the effect of direct barefoot contact with the Earth on prehypertension. 53 prehypertensive individuals were randomly assigned to a study group and a control group. The study group showed a significant decrease in blood pressure after an hour of barefoot contact, while the control group did not. The study suggests that barefoot contact with the Earth can be a cost-effective and simple method for preventing hypertension.

📜 The study investigated the effect of earthing on facial blood flow by grounding or non-grounding 40 subjects for at least one hour. Grounded subjects showed improved facial blood flow regulation compared to non-grounded subjects, suggesting possible benefits for skin tissue repair and facial appearance. The study suggests that the Earth may have a novel influence on skin health and
appearance.

Grounding the Human Body Improves Facial Blood Flow Regulation: Results of a Randomized, Placebo Controlled Pilot Study

 

📜 This study evaluated the effects of earthing (direct contact with earth or a metal conductor) during cycling on biochemical parameters in 42 participants in a double-blind, crossover study. Blood samples were taken before and after cycling with or without earthing. Participants with earthing had significantly lower blood urea levels during exercise and recovery, indicating a possible positive protein balance. Earthing during exercise may inhibit hepatic protein catabolism or increase renal urea excretion. 

Differences in Blood Urea and Creatinine Concentrations in Earthed and Unearthed Subjects during Cycling Exercise and Recovery

 

📜 This study examined the effects of grounding (physical contact with the earth's surface) on the electrical charge of red blood cells (RBCs) and RBC clumping. Ten healthy adult subjects were grounded with conductive patches on the soles of their feet and palms of their hands for 2 hours. The results showed that grounding increased the surface charge on RBCs and significantly reduced RBC aggregation. This suggests that grounding may be a simple and effective intervention for reducing cardiovascular risk and events by reducing blood viscosity and clumping. 

Earthing (Grounding) the Human Body Reduces Blood Viscosity—a Major Factor in Cardiovascular Disease

 

📜 This article explores the effect of the Earth's electric potential on the human body. Measurements were taken of the electric potential on various points of the body in both earthed and unearthed conditions. Contact with the Earth causes a rapid decrease in electrostatic potential on the body and in venous blood, and movement of the body causes transient changes in potential. The results suggest that the Earth's electromagnetohydrodynamic potential may play a role in regulating bioelectrical and bioenergetical processes.

Earthing the Human Organism Influences Bioelectrical Processes

 

📜 This study looked at the effects of grounding, or earthing, on heart rate variability (HRV). Grounding is a natural bioelectric potential that can support physiological changes in the body. The study found that grounding techniques improved HRV beyond basic relaxation in 27 participants. This suggests that grounding can be used as a basic strategy to support the cardiovascular system, especially in situations where the sympathetic nervous system is more activated than the parasympathetic nervous system.

Emotional Stress, Heart Rate Variability, Grounding, and Improved Autonomic Tone: Clinical Applications

 

📜 This study examined the effects of grounding the human body with a copper conductor on physiologic processes. The study found that earthing during night rest caused reductions in serum concentrations of iron, calcium, and phosphorus, as well as affecting thyroid function and blood glucose levels. Earthing also influenced sodium, potassium, magnesium, iron, protein, and albumin concentrations. The study concludes that earthing influences physiologic processes and may regulate endocrine and nervous systems.

Earthing the Human Body Influences Physiologic Processes

📜 This article proposes a hypothesis that chronic inflammation is the underlying cause of all chronic diseases and that various environmental stresses, including those that disturb physiology and those whose absence is disruptive, contribute to chronic inflammation. Earthing may potentially help by reducing these stresses and promoting overall health and well-being.

Mat review

I've been using my mat for about 3 days now and have noticed the following. Deeper sleep with vivid dreams...a great reduction in leg ache and stiffness . Also I feel a slight sunburn sensation when lying on the mat suggesting that there is indeed something happening electrically.

Hi there! Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with our Earthing Mat. We are so happy to hear that you are already noticing positive effects after just 3 days of use. The deeper sleep and reduction in leg ache and stiffness are common benefits of grounding. It's also normal to feel a slight tingling sensation, as this indicates the flow of electrons from the Earth. Keep up the great work and let us know if you have any other questions or concerns.

Felt it instantly

From the moment I put it on, I could tell it was doing exactly as proposed. I am sleeping far better, not to mention more energy during the day. The effects are noticeable, I have no desire to take it off, why would I? For anyone who may be skeptical; this isn't pseudoscience, if you feel it to be true, that it is :)

Small Earthing Mat

Really benefiting from my recently purchased grounding mat.
I thought I was a deep sleeper already, however, I'm waking up really refreshed, there's a definite difference.
Only one regret: I purchased the small Earthing mat, thinking I would save money. I would much prefer the larger one for full mattress coverage on my double bed.
Great service and communication, these people are great to deal with. They're after-purchase service is great too.
My parcel arrived promptly in the post.
Saving up now for a large mat $$$

What do you mean handmade ?
Is it genuine authentic shungite?

Thanks for the review! Although I had to have a little giggle. No Shungite is not 'handmade' but the necklace was :)

Fantastic Results for me personally

Note* I purchased this a few weeks ago (Jan) and wanted to wait before reviewing.

My journey to purchasing this hydrogen water bottle started with following Gary Brecker who swears by them. I then looked at GroundedKiwi - because they are local and, I've already had fabulous service. I trust them. What sold me was the assurance over the product and quality. That if anything went wrong (with this expensive investment) then they would help.

First day getting - noticed increase in my hydration levels. By 1 week in - my skin was glowing, mental clarity increase. Reduced foggy brain. Now - at 4 weeks, I am ready to highly recommend this product. It has been live changing for me. I have chronic inflammation - multiple sclerosis. Upon starting with this, my symptoms have reduced dramatically. Whilst I have made some other tweaks to my lifestyle, I believe this water bottle is making a HUGE difference. I take it everywhere.
How I use it: morning upon waking, I fill it the night before and have it ready next to my bed. I wake and run the 3min cycle. Skull. Wait 30 mins. Then have coffee. Then I fill it again and run the 18min cycle. ready to start the day. Note I regularly intermittent fast.
Lunchtime - another 18min cycle
before dinner, 3min cycle.
after my evening walk or cycle 18min cycle.
So I'm having about 1.6 litres a day of hydrogen water and that works well for me.
We also invested in a top of the line water filtration system too. For maintenance, I've been running ultra distilled water through it (purchased at woolies) once every 6-7 days.
I love this bottle.
I also use the mister included multiple times a day to hydrate my face. Particularly great after a sauna.
Over the last few days, I used the nasal attachment. WOW. after my 90 min bike ride (e-bike) I used this and felt instantly energised!
If you are looking for a hydro water bottle. I highly recommend this. Watch out for the dodgy ones online, no warranty and you don't really know if it works.

Amaing review, thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience of our Hydrogen water bottle. Great to hear that this water has been so good for as well as the hydrogen inhalation. I enjoy using these myself. Thank you :)

Absolutely worth a try.

Great product and fast delivery.
Was a bit sceptical too start with but have noticed a huge difference with my feet, ankles and hips.
Must be something too it if I am experiencing less pain.
Started off with some very strange tingling in my legs when using the mat. Eventually this went away and that's when I started noticing the benefits.
Just waiting for the small quilted mat to be back in stock and I will be grabbing one of those too.
Thanks very much 😀

The Earthing floor mat is definietley our communities favourite daytime earthing product. Thank you so much for sharing your experience and it so nice to hear from another kiwi that we have been able to help through earthing. - Blake

Making a difference straightaway

I was a bit skeptical as a health professional but ordered one after seeing such positive reviews. I wanted to buy from a Kiwi company.
I suffered from burning feet and restless legs and tried every natural remedy with limited relief. In 5 nights of using it, Ive slept much better and only had mild symptoms on night 4.
Im hoping it will also ease my joint discomfort.

Earth Floor Mat

I recently purchased an Earth Floor Mat. I have to say that I am overwhelmed with how wonderful it is. I have a very sensitive body and I like the gentle and steady impulses I receive. Today I did some floor yoga poses on it. The vibrational frequency is slow releasing even after using the mat and I certainly noticed having more clarity and energy for hours afterwards. Thank you so much Ground Kiwi. I highly recommend this product. Amandha.
