Benefits of Grounding or Earthing

5. Effects on Sleep and Chronic Pain

Possibly the most impactful grounding study tested 60 subjects who experienced poor sleep quality and chronic pain. The study took place over one month, with half the subjects sleeping on grounded pads and the others sleeping on placebo pads. Around 85 percent of the grounded subjects said they fell asleep quicker, while only 13 percent of the control group said the same. Every grounded patient stated that they woke up feeling more rested, compared to 13 percent of the control patients. Similar differences occurred in statements about chronic back and joint pain, as well as muscle stiffness.
