Sore Throat

● “For eight years I suffered 24/7 from considerable leg pain due to neuropathy. After some 18 to 20 months of sleeping grounded on an Earthing sheet, my legs are completely healed of the neuropathy. For two and half years now, I’ve had no problem with neuropathy. What worked for me may not work for everyone, but this is my result. I have a left shoulder that has been seriously injured three times in my life, and I attach three or four grounding patches to it each night as I sleep and by the next morning 90-95% of the pain is gone. I’ve also used the patches to relieve the pain of a bum knee, back pain, headaches, sore throats, pain in my hands, and to prevent leg cramps. When I feel cramping coming on, I quickly attach an Earthing patch to the muscle in question and the tendency to cramping immediately stops.” (U.S.)

Congested Nose and Throat

● “From William David Martínez, Chimayo New Mexico, March 2026. “My ordeal with earthing started when I grounded my eyes in hope of curing my Glaucoma.

This horrific event in my life ended with a positive treatment of my eyes.  My eye earthing testimonial is described here at Earthing Institute.

      I started to experience some post-nasal drip.  This I welcomed because I found that having nasal congestion was preventing me from removing more of the crusty Aqueous Humour from my eyes.  This Aqueous Humour was perceived as having Glaucoma in my optic nerve.

      Unfortunately, my post-nasal drip was viscous.  I did not know whether my drip was mucus, aqueous humour or a mixture of both.  I did not feel as if I had nasal congestion and I did not have the flu, or felt sick.  This drip was causing sourness in my throat,  My efforts to cough my nasal drip was difficult because it was sticky and thick.

      My wife suggested that I ground my chest.  I did and this gave me a totally unexpected experience.  I think my grounding of my chest close to my heart started to affect the rhythm of my heart.  I pulled the grounding path off immediately.  Later, while I still had my esophagus full of my nasal drip, I tried grounding my chest again, and I got the same effect.

      I goggle AI to find a cause for my nasal drip and was led to believe that it was acid reflux.  I later concluded that it was not acid reflux because I did not experience that acid burn in my throat.

      My nasal drip got so sever that when I lied down to sleep my breathing would cause a whistling and popping sound.  I could not sleep.  I then, based on what my wife had suggested, I then thought of grounding my throat.  Much to my surprise the whistling stopped.

      Of the several organs within the spot I placed the grounding patch on my throat, I believe my epiglottis and my esophagus muscles where relaxed.  I could now swallow my nasal drip much easier.  Much to my surprise my viscous nasal drip got thinner, and runny.  And more to the effect of grounding my throat, my nasal congestion was no longer occurring.  Unfortunately, now I sleep with a grounding cord on my back and a grounding cord on my throat.  Sometime I even hookup to my grounding eye goggle!

      Ever since 1999, that drove me to get deviated septum surgery, I have had this nasal congestion.  Now, with the grounding of my throat, I get a very small amount of congestion when I get up in the middle of the night.  Getting back into bed, I relieve this minor congestion by laying on my left side to clear my right nostril, flipping over to my right side to clear my left nostril.  I guess my nose has a nasal drip pocket on both sides.  Now that my nasal drip is not viscous, it runs off quit easily.  I can sleep well even with three grounding cords hanging from my body.

The photo on the top is a grounding strap that goes around my neck.  It really does wonders on clearing/draining my throat.

The photo on the bottom shows how I connected the earthing.com grounding patch with the Faraday conductive cloth attached/sewed onto a strap of soft leather.  The blankness was caused when the “conductive glue” spread belong my control.  It just looks ugly!

The white edge is velcro that is sewed on.

My next design will be better.”
