Grounding/Earthing
What is Grounding?
What is Grounding?
Grounding is the method of directly connecting your body to the natural electrical energy present on the Earth's surface. This connection transmits the Earth's calming and balancing energy into your body.
You can experience grounding by walking barefoot outdoors, or you can do it with Comfilar's innovative “Grounding products.” Comfilar products safely connect you to the Earth's energy using the grounding port on your home's electrical outlets or grounding rod kits.
Our products are made from conductive materials and transfer the Earth's natural energy flow to your body when they come into contact with your skin. This allows you to incorporate the relaxing and health-supporting effects of grounding into your daily life.
Discover the miraculous benefits of grounding with Comfilar and bring the energy of nature into your home!
Are Grounding Products Suitable for Our Pets?
Are Grounding Products Suitable for Our Pets?
Grounding is just as beneficial for our pets living indoors as it is for us. Grounding reduces inflammation, regulates blood flow, and reduces stress and anxiety in them, just as it does in us. This helps animals stay physically and mentally healthy. Many of our customers have noticed that their pets instinctively spend more time on grounding products.
Does grounding help with neuropathy?
Does grounding help with neuropathy?
Although there are no studies specifically on neuropathy and direct grounding, grounding has a high potential to help with this condition for the following reasons:
1. Increases Blood Flow
It has been scientifically proven that grounding improves circulation. Neuropathy, especially diabetic neuropathy, is caused by damage to the capillaries and blood vessels that carry blood to the nerve cells in the hands and feet. Grounding can support nerve repair and regeneration by increasing blood flow to these areas.
2. Reduces Inflammation
Grounding provides electrons that neutralize positively charged free radicals in the body. This can reduce nerve damage associated with inflammation. Reduced inflammation may help alleviate symptoms associated with neuropathy.
3. Provides Pain Relief
Research shows that grounding can alleviate chronic pain. Neuropathy often involves nerve pain, and grounding has the potential to alleviate this pain by regulating electrical activity in the nervous system or reducing inflammation.
4. Reduces Stress
Grounding is known to have stress-reducing effects. Since stress can worsen neuropathy symptoms, grounding can indirectly contribute to neuropathy management by lowering stress levels and promoting relaxation.
5. Improves Sleep Quality
Grounding has been shown to improve sleep quality. Quality sleep plays an important role in the body's healing process and supports pain management. Better sleep may help alleviate neuropathy symptoms.
A particularly interesting example is Dr. David Richards' study on neuropathy patients. Dr. Richards treated 21 neuropathy patients using grounding mats and achieved positive results. Such cases highlight grounding as an area for further research into its potential benefits.
General Product Questions
What is the Technology of Grounding Products?
What is the Technology of Grounding Products?
The technology behind Comfilar products is actually quite simple. All of our grounding products are made from conductive materials. These conductive materials are plugged into grounded outlets and, thanks to cables that extend down into the ground, allow energy to flow between you and the earth. Our products only use the grounding wire of electrical outlets and do not carry electricity.

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.
Comfilar Mat Product Questions
How do I clean and care for the Confilar Mat?
How do I clean and care for the Confilar Mat?
To ensure long-term use of your Comfilar Grounding Mat, we recommend keeping it away from direct sunlight. You can clean your product with an alcohol-free wet wipe when necessary. This cleaning method both protects your product and extends its lifespan.
How long will the Comfilar Mat last?
How long will the Comfilar Mat last?
The Grounding Mat can be used for a long time with proper care. It is made of durable special materials and will last longer as long as it is not exposed to water or excessive moisture. Just keep it dry.
Can I wear socks while using the Comfilar mat?
Can I wear socks while using the Comfilar mat?

Comfilar Bedsheet Product Questions
Can I put a regular sheet on top of the Comfilar Grounding Sheet?
Can I put a regular sheet on top of the Comfilar Grounding Sheet?
To achieve the best results, your skin must come into direct contact with your grounding products. Grounding works most effectively through skin contact. Even in nature, just the touch of a fingertip can have an effect.
We do not recommend using another cover over the Comfilar grounding sheet, as this may affect conductivity. However, rest assured that our grounding sheets are designed to be quite comfortable for sleeping. We recommend regular washing to achieve the best results.
Can I Wear Pajamas While Using the Comfilar Grounding Sheet?
Can I Wear Pajamas While Using the Comfilar Grounding Sheet?
Yes, you can wear pajamas while using the Comfilar grounding sheet. While direct skin contact maximizes the grounding benefits, it is not necessary to sleep naked on the sheet. As long as areas of your body such as your arms, legs, or feet are in direct contact with the sheet, you can wear comfortable pajamas or nightgowns.
However, exposed skin areas in direct contact with the grounding sheet can make the grounding benefits more effective. Especially if you have specific health issues, having these areas in direct contact with the sheet can aid the healing process.
For better conductivity and effectiveness, we recommend placing the grounding sheet directly on your mattress or bedding without using an additional sheet on top. This maximizes your experience by providing better contact with the grounding material.
Ultimately, what matters is that certain areas of your body come into contact with the grounding sheet while you sleep. By choosing the method that is most comfortable for you, you can easily reap the benefits of grounding.
