Worm therapy, or helminthic therapy, is an experimental approach to treating autoimmune diseases and immunological disorders involving chronic inflammation, such as Crohn’s, Ulcerative Colitis, Multiple Sclerosis, and Asthma
Worm therapy offers such promise because it is cheaper than the modern alternatives, and based on our observations has fewer, side effects that are mild and short-lived, and is more effective.
Worm therapy is not alternative medicine, it is an early stage experimental therapy arising out of medical and scientific research conducted since 1986 with the publication of the Hygiene Hypothesis in the Lancet by Godfrey. Since publication of the hygiene hypothesis hundreds of peer-reviewed research papers have been published in first-rate medical and science journals clearly demonstrating that infection with benign organisms, especially helminths (intestinal nematodes or worms), prevents the development, or arrests the course, of many diseases of immune dysregulation or autoimmunity involving chronic inflammation.

Autoimmune Therapies, pioneered the use of human helminths outside the laboratory because our founder, Jasper Lawrence, was able to put his severe allergies and asthma into remission by infecting himself with hookworm and whipworm. Based on his experience, our success with close to 100 clients since 2007, and upon the large and increasing amount scientific evidence in favor of worm therapy, Autoimmune Therapies is very confident providing helminthic therapy (worm therapy) to the public is safe and beneficial.

In the two years since Autoimmune Therapies was founded worm therapy has provided relief from Multiple Sclerosis, Sjogren's Syndrome, Ulcerative Colitis, Crohn's Disease, Asthma, Allergies, Psoriasis, Migraine, and shows promise for Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus and to prevent Type I Diabetes. Autoimmune Therapies has treated more people with more conditions than any other organization, including the research centers, using helminthic therapy or worm therapy. Our success rate, all the more startling when one considers that we tend to treat those who have exhausted most, if not all, of the options medicine has to offer, is almost 80%. None of our clients has terminated therapy due to adverse side effects or experienced any harm.
There is no denying that the idea of deliberately infecting a sick person with a parasitic worm is counter-intuitive, repulsive and shocking when first considered. But, when one researches worm therapy one realizes that it's safety and efficacy is unmatched by even the most modern drugs. If worm therapy were a patentable molecule there is no doubt that the drug company in possession of the patent would be worth billions of dollars more than otherwise.
Our experience and research suggests that the only risk attached to this therapy is financial, it is impossible to predict in advance who this therapy will work for.
Worm therapy side effects are rare, and after the side effect period, which typically lasts for a few weeks, those using worm therapy are asymptomatic. Approximately twenty percent of worm therapy clients experience usually very mild side effects. The most common reaction to worm therapy is a localized rash at the site of application and a few days of fatigue and one or two loose bowel movements. Less than five percent of worm therapy clients experience diarrhea for a up to two weeks, and that is as bad as the side effects get with worm therapy.
Compared to modern drugs used to treat conditions like Crohn's disease or Multiple Sclerosis which can cause lymphoma, progressive multi-focal leuco-encephalopathy and even death, worm therapy is very low-risk.
