>> I just learned while traveling on vacation how to practically
>> eliminate
>> body voltage from spring beds. I have a natural foam mattress at home
>> and turn off the power at night so it is usually not an issue. But
>> when on the road, some beds have 13 volts running through them. I
>> understand that even 0.5 can cause problems over time.
>> The easy fix is to get a grounding cord (electrical wire with an
>> alligator clip on one end and a plug that goes only into the ground
>> wall socket, available at LESSEMF.COM),
>> and then cut a one inch horizontal slice in the mattress near the seam
>> to reach the wire inside the mattress. Clip on the grounding cord to a
>> wire spring and check your body voltage again while laying on the bed.
>> In some beds it went down to almost 0 while in others it went from 7
>> volts down to 0.9.
>> Not bad for a cheap fix when you can't turn the power off.
>>
>> This doesn't mean that spring mattresses are OK to sleep on. The coils
>> will still have a positive and negative field associated with them
>> since the ends are not loop back together to short out the charges. I
>> learned from a Slim Spurling workshop how to create coils that have a
>> positive and positive charge for beneficial results. I don't think
>> there are any beds that have this coil configuration. Any coil that
>> has
>> is looped and connected will have a + and - field unless you wrap it
>> back on itself in a clockwise direction and attach both ends together
>> to short it out. That way there is a positive field on both planes.
>> Otherwise, there will be a detrimental field on one end.
>> After sleeping in a coil-less mattress I can now feel the difference
>> while sleeping on coils. I get strange sensations in my kidneys and
>> feet while laying on coils.

>> Thanks for the info about Silicea Charles. Didn't know that.
