Crystal’s Story

After being diagnosed with the autoimmune disease Graves’ disease, Crystal has become a true advocate in the health and wellness arena. 

After experiencing colon failure in her mid-20s, Crystal became a certified nutritionist to educate herself about the healing properties of food. Five years later, she became paralyzed from hip to foot on her left side. She studied anatomy and physical therapy with the goal of becoming an avid marathoner and business owner. Over a decade later, after being diagnosed with the autoimmune disease Graves’ disease, she became a true advocate in the health and wellness arena. 

Mastering the parallels of running, business and life, Crystal is an accomplished entrepreneur who has touched the lives of thousands. She is the owner and chief wellness officer of Synergy Total Holistic Health & Wellness. As an athlete and authority on fitness, she is the author of "The Finish Line Was Just the Start". This year, she will release her next two works, “Rise & R.U.N.,” journal and workbook. Her highly anticipated guidebook, "Before the Start Line," is set to release next year. 

As a health advocate in the industry, Crystal has participated in Houston’s Spin to Stop Arthritis event for the past two years. She is also the 2019 Adult Honoree for Houston Walk to Cure Arthritis.
