Meet Dr. Courtney Craig

nutritionist for chronic fatigue fibromyalgia long covid spoonie

First diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome at age 16, my academic and career trajectory was fueled by the constant need to understand and overcome the illness. Throughout the process, KNOWLEDGE WAS MY BEST MEDICINE. I learned smart, effective ways to overcome the debilitating nature of the illness. These strategies are based on years of trial and error, a vast look at the scientific literature, a sampling of multidisciplinary methods, and an unending devotion to the cause.

Using both conventional medicine and integrative medicine, I was able to improve my health. I sincerely believe you can too! The foundation of this approach is rooted in dietary changes that effectively reduce inflammation in the body, improve intestinal health and metabolism, and boost immune function.

After years of pushing myself to the brink, I was able to recover enough to live a bustling NYC life and then move to southern Germany. Here, I frequently travel, hike, and bike to picturesque locations.

It is my goal to give back to the community as a patient, clinician, and nutritionist for ME/CFS. You deserve a practitioner who believes in your condition. I can personally relate to your illness experience.

I received my clinical training at Palmer College of Chiropractic, Florida. I also completed undergraduate study in exercise science at the College of William and Mary. I graduated with honors from the University of Bridgeport’s Human Nutrition Institute Master program. I studied at the Technical University of Munich, Germany, with a focus on nutrition and biomedical research. I was a visiting scientist at Cornell’s Center for Enervating Neuroimmune Disease under Maureen Hanson. A lifelong learner, I have also completed a certificate in medical writing and editing from the University of California at San Diego.

The secret of the care of the patient is caring for the patient
