Clinical Study: Grounding Sheets Improve Sleep

Clinical Study: Grounding Sheets Improve Sleep

Introduction

If you’ve ever struggled to fall asleep or wake up feeling truly rested, you’re not alone. Millions of adults face nightly sleep challenges. But a new 2025 randomized, double-blind clinical trial offers promising evidence that grounding sheets & mats may help improve sleep quality and reduce stress.

In this article, we’ll explore the study, the results, what they mean (and don’t mean), and how grounding sheets like the Rejuviaa Universal Grounding Sheet can support your sleep naturally.

The Study at a Glance (2025 RCT)

  • Design: 31-day randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial
  • Participants: 60 adults with sleep complaints
  • Measurements:
    • PSQI (Sleep Quality Index)
    • ISI (Insomnia Severity Index)
    • ESS (Daytime Sleepiness Scale)
    • BEPSI (Stress Index)
    • Actigraphy (wearable tracking of total sleep time)

Results:

  • Grounded group saw significant improvements in sleep quality, insomnia severity, daytime sleepiness, and stress.
  • Actigraphy showed longer total sleep time in grounded users.
  • Improvements were sustained through a follow-up check (Day 38).

Why This Matters

Unlike small pilot studies, this was a well-designed clinical trial that measured both subjective sleep scores and objective sleep time. That combination makes the findings more compelling and trustworthy.

What This Does—and Doesn’t—Prove

✅ Suggests grounding may improve sleep quality and stress.
✅ Shows benefits that people felt and that devices measured.
❌ Doesn’t prove grounding is a cure for insomnia.
❌ Doesn’t replace medical treatment for sleep disorders.

How Might Grounding Work?

While more research is needed, other studies suggest grounding can:

  • Support circulation and blood flow (2013 hemorheology study)
  • Reduce inflammation markers (2015 pilot thermography study)
  • Improve stress resilience and HRV (2019 randomized trial in bodyworkers)

Together, these effects may help the body shift into deeper, restorative sleep.

How to Try Grounding at Home

  • Use a tested grounding sheet or mat like Rejuviaa’s Universal Grounding Sheet.
  • Check your outlet with a UL-listed tester to ensure proper grounding.
  • Use consistently for at least 3–4 weeks to notice changes.
  • Pair with healthy sleep habits (cool room, routine, no late-night screens).

Safety First

  • Grounding products are not medical devices.
  • If you have an implanted device (pacemaker/ICD), consult your doctor before use.
  • Always unplug during thunderstorms or power surges.

Final Thoughts

The 2025 study adds compelling evidence that grounding may help you sleep longer and feel more rested—when used consistently. While it’s not a medical cure, it’s a simple, natural way to support better sleep.
