Wim Hof Method | Lyme Disease Trial

This Lyme Trial was set up with 22 people

All diagnosed with post-treatment Lyme disease

They got together for over 10 weeks.

Once a week, we get together, we practice all the exercises together in a group

At the beginning, it was new for them

And some of them are fighting Lyme for many years.

The intention is to have a follow-up after half a year

And then, measure again and see if there's any progress in their functional daily lives.

We created a Facebook group

With all the people involved

They share their experiences.

The bad ones, the good ones

And when it was snowing outside here, in The Netherlands

They all went outside and challenged themselves with little snow angels

That created a beautiful atmosphere

And I think that was really the power of the Facebook group.

I felt how good it was for me in Poland

I felt the strength of the method but after that I also had a little drawback

And after a few months I could feel that my life was getting better!

It's certainly a long-term commitment

I kick-started the method in 5 days

And after that I also had a drawback

And had to get through that

And then, in the long-term it started to work for me

As good as it does now.

This was a really successful trial

And in my opinion, I really hope that this is the starting case for Lyme patients all over the world

To help them with this method

Because the results with such a small group already gives us big promises for the future.

I think this project is amazing

I mean we started off and didn't really know what to expect

It was the first project that we did like this

But it was amazing to see that during the 10 Weeks

You just saw the spark in everybody's eyes returning

And I'm really proud of what they did

It was really tough at some point

And they were still full of commitment

They really wanted to go for it and saw this as a new chance

I'm really proud of them all!

The reason we set up this project

Is because if you want to have the real big scientific studies you need a lot of funding for it

It takes a lot of time

And here, we were able to set it up really quickly

And also see really quickly the results with the participants

You only had to have 20 people with Lyme disease

You have a location

You have instructors, like me, that are more than willing to help out and give back to the community

And in that way, we already see results now

Hopefully, it inspires science and the rest of the world

To take on this method and see what it can do even more for Lyme patients.
