I simply cannot understand the negative reviews of Wholistic Wellness. I have been a patient for over 2 years and now that I have moved out of state, I appreciate 1 million times more what I had at WWC. Julie, CJ, Stacey, Jess and Dr Cooper are all absolutely amazing! I miss them so much! The Wholistic Wellness team has helped me through so many health issues.
The sheer knowledge in the office is amazing and they take time to explain it all to you in ways you can understand if you want to learn! After 2 years of working with them, I feel more in tune with my own body than I ever have. The sheer amount of techniques that are used and the technology available is unlike any other clinic I have been to. Trt chiropractic, SRT, nutrition response testing, Neuro emotional technique, ion, sauna, Brain tap, accupuncture, blood work, genetic testing, hormone testing, ASA and I know I'm leaving more out and there are things that I never tested as needing that I dont even know about.
Your initial consultation is sure to include tests you have never seen before and its amazing the amount of information they compile in your first visit. Then through your follow ups, it's amazing to see how your body responds and how your plan changes because your body is getting just what it needs! Don't be afraid that it's another clinic that is going to put you on handfuls of supplements and see you in 3 months to see if anything has changed.
They will tell you that they don't want you to have expensive urine and if you are relying on supplementation too much, you aren't taking advantage of the amazing technology that can help you as well. I know first hand that health can be expensive at times, but being sick and tired all the time is just as expensive. I'm telling you, if you are on the fence and have been thinking about it for a while, just book your appointment.
It's time you could be using to feeling so much better! I know this totally sounds like a paid ad but I promise it's not. I haven't been able to go to the clinic since December when we visited home and today while looking for a new clinic 500 miles away, I just miss them so much and knew I had to share!

I came in inquiring on any job opportunities as I am extremely interested and highly believe in holistic health and its benefits. I am not one to take the time to write reviews in general, especially negative ones, however I have never felt so judged and degraded. I would never recommend any one here. I came in feeling great, left feeling like I was 2 inches tall. if I wasn't stronger in my self worth.
I could have very well spiraled into a depression or questioned my value. However, I know this isn't because of me. Please think how your nonverbal actions can be perceived and possibly affect some one's well being. Respectfully

I've been a client of Julie's for about 5 years now. She has been the one that's guided me in some of the biggest blessings I've ever received. Struggling with weight for as long as I can remember, my earliest memories as a child include being so much bigger than my friends & hating myself. This self-hatred led to a lot of traumatic experiences in my life.
I compulsively ate mostly due to un-treated OCD. I went to countless drs, nutritionists, every fad diet, etc. I gave up on ever being a normal weight. I accepted that I would never have a body I loved. In 11 years, my family of 4 hasn't done family pics only due to my insecurities. I stumbled upon WWC after struggling with infertility for 2 yrs. Went to U of I, did all the tests, Hubs did too.
No one could figure out what was wrong & every treatment failed. I went to WWC looking for acupuncture for 1 last shot at maybe having a pregnancy. I saw Dr. Cooper who recommended I see Julie for nutrition. At this point, after struggling & seeing so many drs, I didn't have much hope. I saw her anyway, because I would try any diet. I had a habit of spending hundreds on random diet stuff a month anyway so why not?
On this day, I gave up on pregnancy, not going to be in the cards for me. Then, I lost 30 lbs with Julie! I was sooo happy, & I was starting to accept & be okay with not having the child I had cried & tried so hard for. All of a sudden. I'M PREGNANT! I truly believe that Julie discovered what my body was needing & recommended the supplements, food, & fitness suggestions I needed to get my body healthy enough to become pregnant.
I also am forever thankful that my healthier body got pregnant, vs the one that was using the expensive fertility treatments. After giving birth, I struggled with mental health quite a bit & gained a ton of weight, got up to my highest. I started doing better mentally & lost 40 lbs on my own but hit a plateau I couldn't get past. I started going back to Julie about 5 months ago, & she got me right out of this plateau I had hit within a couple of weeks, & I'm THRIVING!
I've lost an additional 45 lbs & I'm only 40 lbs away from a goal I had given up on years ago. I now see the light at the end of the tunnel. I feel better than ever, energy levels are great, and I sleep great. I could not have done it without her. The fact that I'm achieving things I had never thought I could do is giving me the confidence to set goals I never would have dreamed of before.
From little things like going to a public pool with my family (hadn't gone in 14 years), to big things, like family pictures someday & setting higher career goals. I've truly entered a new stage of life that for 20ish years didn't believe I was worthy of. I still have work to do, but I know that with Julie by my side I will get it accomplished. Her attitude is also so contagious, so confident she can help.
She was always positive, friendly, & easy to talk to. When I confided in her about how bad my binges were (something I ALWAYS downplayed to others, but I had gained such a trust in her), she never made me feel less than. In the past when I asked other professionals for help with my binging issue, they made me feel like I just had to stop. (Like I hadn't been trying to just stop for years.) Julie looked at it like "Ok, what's mis-balanced in her body causing this behavior?" She made me feel like it wasn't my fault, the embarrassment started to fade, & she became my teammate.
She's empowered me & taught me how to live healthier & happier. That's priceless. it's so surreal when your prayers & wishes are finally answered. It's brought me to tears multiple times, I've thanked God for her over & over. I've been trying to figure out how you can actually express your gratitude to someone who has literally made your dreams come true. I don't think you can, but I hope that if one person who's struggling sees this & receives the help, I have from WWC, it's the best way I can pay it forward.

I purchased a 3 packs of the laser lipo from Groupon. I went in 3 times for 10 minutes of the laser each session. After researching I found that each laser session should have lasted 30-45 minutes. I feel that was ripped off by the promotion. The staff that I dealt with was great but I do not feel like I got what I paid for.
