Abstract

This article aims to provide a systematic review of grounding or grounding through direct physical contact with the earth's surface, such as walking barefoot. Grounding is hypothesized to affect the body's bio electrical system. which may be beneficial to health Evidence from contemporary studies suggests that grounding can regulate the body's electrical environment, reduce inflammation, and improve sleep quality. and increase overall well-being These effects are believed to be caused by the transfer of Earth's electrons. This will neutralize free radicals. and stabilizes the internal bio electrical state The same is true in electrophysiology. Supports biophysical models This review examines the theoretical foundations of grounding and critically evaluates research methods, findings, and limitations in observational and experimental studies. This article is a synthesis of current evidence. It identifies knowledge gaps and outlines directions for future research on basic therapeutic applications in health care
