What is a grounding mattress pad?
A grounding mattress pad reconnects your body to the Earth's natural electrons while you sleep — the same effect as walking barefoot on grass, but in your own bed, all night long. Modern life keeps us insulated from that charge by shoes, floors, and buildings; grounding restores the connection passively while you rest.
How fast will I see results?
Everyone's body is different, but most customers report better sleep and less morning stiffness within the first few nights. Deeper benefits — calmer energy, eased aches, a more rested baseline — tend to build over the first month of consistent use, and many describe the biggest changes after several months of nightly grounding.

Grounding is backed by over 100 years of peer-reviewed studies and clinical research, from Dr. George Starr White's innovative research in the 1920's to Dr. Cecilia Giulivi's studies out of UC Davis in 2025.
Will it sleep hot?
No — and the design is the reason. The pad lays under your fitted sheet, so you're never sleeping directly against it; you rest on your own bedding as usual. At just 1.85mm thin it's completely undetectable, and the surface is perforated for breathability so air moves freely and heat doesn't get trapped.

Unlike a heated mattress pad, nothing here generates warmth — no grid electricity flows through the pad at all, only the Earth's free electrons. Most customers, including hot sleepers, don't notice it thermally.
Is it safe to plug in?
Completely. This is the most common question we get, and the answer is reassuring: no electricity ever flows through the pad to you from the electrical grid. It connects only to the grounding wire in your outlet — the same wire that safely carries excess charge to the Earth through your home's ground rod — drawing in free electrons, nothing more.

For extra peace of mind, the grounding cord has a built-in surge protection circuit. It's designed to be used safely all night, every night. A free grounding test kit is included so you can confirm your outlet is properly grounded.
What size should I get?
We make a true fit for every bed, so you're grounded across the whole mattress — not partially covered:

Single / Half-Bed (28"×70") — Twin, Twin XL, Split-King, or one side of a King.
Full / Double (55"×70") — the versatile mid-size.
Queen (60"×80") — a precise fit for a standard US Queen.
King / Cal King (72"×80") — maximum coverage for the largest beds.

This is a real advantage: most grounding brands sell only one or two sizes and expect a small pad to "cover" a King. Sharing with a partner? As long as you're both in contact with the pad, you both stay grounded.
Why Earthbound?
Because it's built to work — and built to last. The conductive layer is carbon fiber, not silver thread. Silver oxidizes and frays a little with every wash until it stops conducting; carbon fiber is inert, won't oxidize, and grounds identically on day one and year five. Buy it once.

Add it up: works through your fitted sheet, fits every bed size, perforated and undetectable, a 90-night risk-free trial, a lifetime warranty, and a free grounding test kit, e-book, and grounding cable in every box. Trusted by over 30,000+ customers.

The old way — Grounding Sheets

Silver thread woven into cotton.

Conductive at first — but metal and cotton wear differently, so washing frays the threads and conductivity fades over time.

  • Needs direct skin contact to work
  • Silver can oxidize and tarnish
  • Conductivity drops with washing
  • Often a replace-it-yearly cost
  • Coverage limited to the sheet

Whole-body grounding

One connection. Felt everywhere.

Modern life keeps you insulated from the Earth's free electrons. Reconnecting may support nearly every system that inflammation touches.

Sleep & circadian rhythm

Grounding may help regulate cortisol and calm the nervous system at night, so you fall asleep faster and wake more rested. Many people notice deeper, less interrupted sleep within the first week.

"Grounding has been linked to benefits around sleep, inflammation, and overall wellbeing. But most people can’t spend their day barefoot outdoors. What I like about Earthbound is how accessible they make grounding, offering people a simple way to reconnect with the Earth from home."

Customer Reviews

Overall rating: 4.8 / 5 from 1471 reviews.

My husband and I love the mattress pad! Our bedroom is in the basement of an older style of home that has the very steep stairs. For about the last year and a half I've been having to do the dog crawl to get up the stairs in the morning. Within a week of putting on the mattress pad I'm back to going up the stairs like a human being again! We've recommended the pads to friends and family. We even bought one for my 92 year old mother in law. She loves it and says it has helped her stiff joints too.

Earthbound® Grounding Mattress Pad

Recently diagnosed with an autoimmune disease, have been researching ways to reduce inflammation. Came upon the documentary “Down to Earth”, and bought a queen size (plus pillow cover) for myself and a twin size for my father. After I put it on the bed, I slept through the night for the first time in a looong time! Haven’t measured my inflammation levels recently, but I’m willing to bet they are going down! My father has also noticed improved mobility! I’ve recommended it to my friend and family! Thank you!😃

Earthbound® Grounding Mattress Pad

It’s nicely made and fits my bed well. I don’t feel any different after a few weeks of sleep on it.

Earthbound® Grounding Mattress Pad

I have fibromyalgia, Hashimoto’s, spinal fusion and arthritis. Since sleeping on the grounding mattress cover, I have come off two of my medication’s. I don’t wake up in the middle of the night with breakthrough pain in my back anymore and I don’t wake up in the mornings feeling as stiff and tight and sore in my joints. I give all the credit to this grounding mattress cover.

Earthbound® Grounding Mattress Pad

I like the mat. However it’s difficult to install and keep it from wrinkling up under the fitted sheet.

Earthbound® Grounding Mattress Pad

I have had the grounding mat and the grounded sheet on my bed both of them plugged in for over a week. I haven’t noticed any different yet in my aches and pains or my sleep but I am hopeful and I’m gonna keep using it today. I am washing this grounding sheet and I will place it right back on my king size bed with hopes that it will help my health. Thank you for reaching out to me and I appreciate your customer service.

Earthbound® Grounding Mattress Pad

Well, I’ve been sleeping for the last seven days very well. I do take some good supplements, but I think it’s this Grounding Matt I’ve had it for two weeks now.

Earthbound® Grounding Mattress Pad

the sheet is great and I think I am sleeping better, delivery not so much/ Unfortunately the package was delivered to out the yard not in yard at all.Even if they threw it on the yard would have been better, found at back of car. go figure.

Earthbound® Grounding Mattress Pad

I’m neutral on this product. I used the tester first and plugged the mattress pad in. The product seems to be made well. It doesn’t make any noise or feel like anything under the sheet, which I was concerned about. It came in a timely manner and was nicely packaged with clear instructions. Unfortunately, nothing has changed for me as far as sleep, aches and pains or anything noticeable.

Earthbound® Grounding Mattress Pad

I sleep very well since I got the mattress pad about a month ago. My husband sleeps a little better as well. I highly recommend this and I find it is easier than a sheet. So much easier to put my own sheet over this.

Earthbound® Grounding Mattress Pad

Easy to put on, stays in place. My arthritic back feels much better and I’m not bothered but general aches and pains as before. I feel my sleep is sounder and deeper. For this experience, I would buy it again!

Earthbound® Grounding Mattress Pad

Our daughter told us how great the mattress pad and pillowcases worked for her and her husband, so we decided to give them a try. We slept better and woke up without that morning stiffness we had been experiencing. Since then I told my sister. She and her husband slept so great that they told his mother and ordered her a set. ⭐️

Earthbound® Grounding Mattress Pad

I always woke up with lower back pain that I could eventually walk off. Now I wake up pain-free. No complaints.

Earthbound® Grounding Mattress Pad

Super easy set up Started sleeping like the dead on the first night. I definitely feel a lot deeper sleep since I’ve had the grounding mattress.

Earthbound® Grounding Mattress Pad

Fits bed perfect . Not sure I have noticed difference with this on but will keep using . Hoping in time we see changes .

Earthbound® Grounding Mattress Pad

I'm into my 80th trip around the sun and have had back problems beginning in my late 20s. I am experiencing some relief and am looking forward to much more.

Earthbound® Grounding Mattress Pad

I bought it for a friend of mine for her Birthday. Her husband and her notice a difference. I sure love mine.

Earthbound® Grounding Mattress Pad

Love the fit, but most importantly I noticed that im experiencing a deeper sleep as well as less stiffness and knee and shoulder pain in the morning.

Earthbound® Grounding Mattress Pad

We firmly believe in the grounded sheets and these from Earthbound are the nicest quality we’ve found.

Earthbound® Grounding Mattress Pad

Bought this for a twin daybed. I liked that it had straps rather than the competition's full elastic mattress perimeter, since that would have been hard to install on a mattress trapped on three sides by the bed frame's tubing. These straps would be hard to use, too, but they were easier to snip off the underside than perimeter elastic would have been. Four snips and the pad lays nice and flat. Now it's easy to fold the pad lengthwise into thirds towards the wall without removing it in the morning, and our six daytime pillows cover it completely. Always ready to unfold quickly and cover with a bottom flat sheet at bedtime. We only need to unplug it from the wall outlet during thunderstorms.

Earthbound® Grounding Mattress Pad

I've been using grounding SHEETS for 2 yrs and the grounding mattress pad has definitely made an improvement. I'm sure the fact that I don't have to wash it as often as the sheets sure does make a difference.

Earthbound® Grounding Mattress Pad

My cats love it. I still have problems on some nights with getting to sleep and staying asleep as the RF energy in my bedroom is very high but when I get to sleep, I sleep well.

Earthbound® Grounding Mattress Pad

Better sleep, wake up with less sometimes no aches and pains. My husband is convinced it was a great purchase.

Earthbound® Grounding Mattress Pad

I bought one for my husband and I and for my parents. We all have had deeper sleep, and at least for my husband and I , crazy dreams, meaning we are in deep REM sleep. I've had other grounding sheets/mats etc... This one was the easiest, and stays in place. I use a 100% linen sheet overtop of it. LOVE IT!

FAQ

Everything we get asked about grounding, the pad, setup, and what to expect.

  • What is grounding (or earthing)?

    Grounding means reconnecting your body to the Earth's natural electrons — like walking barefoot on grass, but while you sleep. The Earth's surface holds a slightly negative charge that, when transferred to your body, may help neutralize inflammation, support better sleep, and improve circulation.

  • How does the pad actually work?

    You plug the included grounding cord into a grounded wall outlet. The outlet's grounding wire connects to the Earth itself. Free electrons travel from the Earth, through the cord, into the pad's conductive carbon fiber mesh. While you sleep, those electrons transfer through your fitted sheet to your body — the same effect as standing barefoot on grass.

  • Why carbon fiber instead of silver thread?

    Silver oxidizes. Every wash degrades the conductivity of silver-thread sheets, and within a year or two, they stop working effectively. Carbon fiber is inert — it doesn't oxidize, doesn't fray, and conducts electrons identically after a year as it does on day one. Buy it once.

  • How quickly will I feel results?

    Phase 1 (first week): Better sleep, reduced muscle tension, mood lift.
    Phase 2 (first month): More refreshed mornings, joint pain relief, energy improvement.
    Phase 3 (six months): Better circulation, faster physical recovery, healthier skin.
    Phase 4 (one year+): Chronic symptoms fade, stronger immune response, deep sense of wellbeing.

  • Does it work through my fitted sheet?

    Yes — that's our proprietary Near Field™ Earthing. Most grounding products require direct skin contact, but the conductivity of our high-density carbon fiber creates a restorative bridge that works through a thin layer of fabric like a fitted sheet or pajamas.

  • Is it safe to plug into a wall outlet?

    Yes. The grounding cord has a built-in 100kΩ resistor for surge protection. No electricity flows through the pad — only free electrons from the Earth's natural charge. Safe to use every night.

  • What if my outlet isn't grounded?

    Most modern outlets are grounded. If you're not sure, you can verify with the included Grounding Test Kit. If your outlet isn't grounded, you can use an outdoor grounding rod instead — sold separately on our site.

  • Will it block EMF?

    The pad has been shown to block harmful electric fields from WiFi routers, microwaves, computers, and phone chargers. The carbon fiber acts as a Faraday-style shield while you sleep on it.

  • What about lightning storms?

    The 100kΩ resistor built into the grounding cord protects against power surges. That said, during a severe electrical storm, we recommend unplugging just as you would any other electronic device — out of an abundance of caution.

  • Can I just walk barefoot instead?

    You absolutely can — barefoot grounding is the original method. The challenge is consistency. Most people don't have safe, easy access to bare earth daily, especially in cold months or urban environments. The pad gives you 6-8 hours of grounded contact every night without needing to leave your bed.

  • How do I clean the pad?

    Wipe gently with a damp cloth as needed. The carbon fiber doesn't require frequent washing because it's inert. Avoid harsh detergents or fabric softeners, which can damage the conductive surface.

  • What size should I order?

    Single/Half-Bed (28"×70"): Twin, Twin XL, Split-King, or one side of a King.
    Full/Double (55"×70"): the most versatile mid-size.
    Queen (60"×80"): standard US Queen.
    King/Cal King (72"×80"): maximum coverage for the largest formats.

  • Can my partner share the pad?

    Yes. As long as you're both in contact with the pad, you both receive the grounding effect. For Split-King setups, two Single/Half-Bed pads work better than one large pad.

  • What if I don't feel a difference?

    Use it consistently for at least 30 days. If you still don't notice any improvement, contact us within 90 nights of receiving your pad and we'll refund you in full — no questions asked.

  • Why not sell on Amazon?

    Counterfeits. Direct-to-consumer is the only way we can guarantee you're getting an authentic Earthbound pad with proper conductivity, real warranty support, and our 90-night trial. Anything you find on Amazon claiming to be Earthbound is a knockoff.
