Using the Throw
The Throw is quite portable and can be used in a variety of locations. Just remember that only one side of this blanket is conductive and not the other. Make sure you have direct bare skin contact with the side that shows the parallel rows of silver fibre stitching.
What is the Earthing Throw made of?
Fiber Content: 29.5% Organic Cotton, 68.5% Polyester, 2% Silver
Check Your Outlets For Ground
In order to use your Throw you must connect it to the “ground port” of a grounded 3 prong outlet. Before plugging in your Throw, you must check that the outlet is grounded by plugging in the outlet checker.
Two amber lights illuminated is GOOD and means that you have a proper ground and you are ready to connect your Throw. If you have any other light combination it means your outlet is NOT properly grounded. If that is the case, you can use the Grounding Rod in the optional step 3.
Setting Up The Throw
Some people use the Throw in bed. If that’s how you use it, place it over the bottom sheet and tuck in the ends under the mattress. You must have bare skin contact with the conductive side. Similarly if you use it as a wrap-around while seated, make sure the conductive side has some contact with your bare skin.
1. Attach snap end of the Cord, to the nub on the mat.
2. Insert prong end of the Connection Cord either directly into your grounded outlet, or the Safe T Cube (that is plugged into a grounded outlet), or into the ground rod cord if you use a ground rod connection.
3. Make bare skin contact with the conductive side (the side that shows the parallel rows of silver fibre stitching)
How To Wash and Care For Your Ground Therapy Throw
It is good to wash your Throw. It will not be harmed by washing. In fact it is beneficial. Washing in warm water strips body sweat and natural skin oils from the silver keeping it conductive.
Do’s:
Wash a minimum of 2x per month or weekly is recommended
Wash in a washing machine
Wash with warm water, approximately 40 celsius (105 degrees Fahrenheit)
Dry in a dryer on low or line dry
Dont’s:
Don’t wash with bleach or fabric softeners
Don’t use whitening detergents, oxi-detergents OR detergents with oils like lavender or coconut oil
Don’t use dryer sheet fabric softeners
Don’t apply lotions or body oils before bed
Bleach, body lotions and oils can tarnish the silver thread rendering it non conductive. Fabric softener builds up on the silver and also ruins its conductive properties.
It is advised to wait one hour to use the product after applying lotion to the skin. Iron using low heat.
