To begin with, I would strongly advise going to a health professional - a herbalist, if you prefer alternative medicine, or a doctor/clinician.
It is most likely gas, as was suggested - and that is not just a subject for bad jokes. Gas buildup in the intestines can create all kinds of embarrassing growls, rumbles, (and yes, flatulence), and painful cramps and pinches. Gas attacks can be as painful as gall or kidney stones, and as bad as the early stages of labour! And yes, the movement of air down there can create the sensation of 'weird shifting movements'.
Peppermint (easily available as a tea), fennel, and several other herbs (known in a group as 'carminatives') are all useful in calming upset stomachs and reducing gas. There are several proprietary medicines over-the-counter for excessive gas. Avoid foods that are likely to cause extra gas, and don't gulp your meals - it's generally better to eat calmly for a number of reasons.
Worms can be expelled by a number of herbal remedies or prepared medicines known as 'vermifuges' - yup, 'worm expellers'.
But you should still be checked out by a health professional. A parasite is far less likely an occurance than a pregnancy - and both can happen if you weren't prepared...
Hope that helps!

Peristalsis is a series of muscle contractions and relaxations that occur along the course of the intestinal tract to push food and waste products through. In some cases, people can actually feel the contractions as they occur, especially in the case of movements of the large intestine. The basic principles behind this natural process in the body have also been adapted for peristaltic pumps, devices that utilize the same techniques used by the body to push fluids from place to place.
The way in which peristalsis works is fairly simple. When food or water enters the gastrointestinal tract, the muscles start to compress and relax in a wave-like motion to push the material through. In the case of someone swallowing a bite of apple, when the apple reaches the esophagus, bands of smooth muscle alternate squeezing and relaxing movements. As the muscle squeezes, the apple moves to the area where the muscle is relaxed, which will be further down the esophagus. The muscles further up stay contracted so that the food can t work its way back up, and eventually, the food reaches the stomach.
The stomach, in turn, forces its contents into the intestinal tract with peristaltic movements. The small intestines are constantly pushing material along so that it can be further broken down and digested, and to facilitate the expulsion of gas created as a byproduct of digestion so that the gas does not build up. By contrast, the large intestine goes through only two or three periods of big contractions every day, which are designed to push fecal material out of the anus.
This system is designed to prevent reverse peristalsis, in which food goes in the opposite of the desired direction. The body can sometimes have a wayward attitude, however, especially when it comes to getting rid of things which it deems harmful. Vomiting, for example, is caused by intense contractions of the abdominal muscles which push food back up through the esophagus, overriding the usual muscle movements.
People may sometimes refer jokingly to vomiting as “reverse peristalsis,” although this terminology is technically incorrect. Ruminants like goats and cows, however, do engage in this practice when they regurgitate cuds to chew on. In these animals, the digestive tract creates a vacuum that pulls partially-digested cuds into the esophagus, and then the animal uses muscle contractions to move the cud into the mouth so that it can be chewed again.

Maybe you get gastritis. Consult doctors. Mylanta can help to reduce your gas ( simeticon contained). If mylanta can reduce your half problem, ignore your mind that you have parasites inside. Thus you get gastritis.
Many ways come to solve your problem with natural remedy,
1. Go to traditional chinese medical centre.
2. Don't work after meals at least 1 hour. Beacuse it will make more gases in your intestinal. But you can walk about 2-3 minutes to make better your digestion.
3. You'd better not to drink carbonated drinks. It may cause your stomach more tightened.
4. Try not to wear tighting dress, trousers. Usually more tighten of your trousers, more unpleasant of your feeling.
5. Try not to smoke, not to drink stimulating drinks, coffee, etc.
6. Eat more vegetables, to make your digestive system more better.

You can cleanse parasites either herbally, homeopathically, or with essential oils.
Check with your local health food store for herbs. Check with Soul Doctor on Answers for homeopathics. If you'd like to see a naturopath or homeopath and don't know one, you can find local ones at the sites listed below. Both sites list practitioners by state.
Peppermint, clove, and tea tree essential oils applied topically over the stomach will help, as well.

It's possible you're constipated, and the movement you're feeling is matter moving in your large intestine (part of which moves just below your stomach). Here's a picture of how it sits in your body:

It is EXTREMELY UNLIKELY that you have a "parasite" large enough for you to feel. I would bet 100:1 that you don't. (The only exception being a fetus -- they are, technically, parasitic. But we don't think of a baby like that.) It is NORMAL to have feelings of movement in the abdomen - they're related (as already noted) to peristaltic movement and gas. Parasites are vastly overhyped as something to be worried about - they are extremely RARE in western cultures, and the ones that do exist are tiny.
