I haven't tried it but it does sound like it is worth a try, especially since it doesn't really cost you anything. I did read the following caveat in a research article.

"One very important caveat of grounding is to exercise extreme caution in any patient taking Coumadin-like blood thinners as the combination of pharmaceutical blood thinning and grounding can virtually make the blood too thin. Cardiologists have seen this occurrence in their patients who were grounding and simultaneously taking blood thinners as bleeding became apparent. It is thus imperative that when patients take Coumadin-like derivatives, that they discuss earthing or grounding with their doctor to avoid the possibility of any adverse bleeding complications."

Wow, glad you mentioned the blood thinner warning, thanks John. I'll keep that in mind and read that link you gave. I may end up using natural barefoot grounding methods instead of getting a fancy contraption.
