Juli Yelnick, L.Ac., Dipl. Ac (NCCAOM)
Licensed Acupuncturist, Juli Yelnick, focuses on the whole person, rebalancing the body systems and functions that can become stagnated, weakened, or even plagued with excess due to stress, trauma, dietary habits, or even congenital predispositions. In her research as an Anthropology Professor, she has traveled to several foreign nations, observing the ancient medical traditions of indigenous communities, which has led to her strong belief in integrative medicine. Working alongside chiropractors, naturopathic doctors, medical doctors, massage therapists, and physical therapists has shown that comprehensive collaboration amongst practitioners leads to the best patient outcomes. She teaches her patients how Traditional Chinese Medicine understands their complex pattern of symptoms, and invites them to take an active role as an equal participant in their care plan through dietary and other lifestyle shifts outside of acupuncture sessions.
Over the past decade Juli volunteered to lead brigades of students and practitioners to Natural Doctors International’s teaching clinic in Nicaragua, mentoring the interns by day and teaching their Natural Medicine in Global Health courses in the evenings. She served as Vice President of the Illinois Society of Acupuncturists and traveled to lobby in Washington, D.C. for the protection of patients’ rights and the expansion of the scope of acupuncture practice. Juli is a life-long learner, and is hard at work to complete her doctoral program in 2023.

Why Choose Us
See What Our Clients Have To Say
“ I was going to a different Chiropractor and I thought he was helping me with my pain that I had. He would do treatment and after that treatment, my pain would come back. My family told me to go to Dr. Cleofe and I made an appointment to go see him February 2015. I told him where my pain was and we started my treatments. Dr. Cleofe showed me exercises to do to strengthen my core. My treatment ended in May 2015 and I continue to do my exercise everyday. I feel 100% better with no pain and I would totally recommend Dr. Cleofe. Thank you Dr. Cleofe!”
“ I started in the winter with pain at an 8/10. I was unable to sit for any stretch of time. Coming to Wellspring has helped me feel better. They do not just treat the problem; they educate you on how to do stretches and exercises to heal your body. My pain is not gone, but it is better. I have been to many chiropractic offices, this is the first one that taught me exercises to help me rather than becoming a lifetime patient.
“Getting chiropractic treatment from Wellspring Chiropractic was extremely helpful and allowed me to continue on with me life with little to no discomfort in my neck! They were extremely helpful and patient with me. As a student, chiropractic care gave me better concentration and focus on my studies, as the exercises and adjustments I was given, allowed me to find ways to spend more time studying without neck pain. I would definitely recommend Dr. Cleofe to anyone who has pain, or is looking for a chiropractor.”
“I cannot even begin to express how happy I am with Dr. Cleofe and all the time, work, and exercise plans he has given me. I started in so much pain back in January and was coming to Wellspring Chiropractic several times a week. Dr. Cleofe always made me feel so much better and gave me the encouragement to continue healthy and safe movement practices that I could continue to get better and return to all my daily activities which I loved so much but always felt pain in doing. I am happy to say that I have been PAIN FREE for 27 days! Thank you Dr. Cleofe and all the super friendly people at Wellspring Chiropractic for not giving up on me!”
“I started treatment about 2 ½ months ago. I had sought treatment and diagnosis for neck and upper back pain for 10 years. I have visited surgeons and was taking several different medications. Through treatment and exercise at Wellspring, I have increased range of motion, less discomfort and am sleeping more soundly. I would recommend Dr. Greg to anyone with neck or back pain.”
“ I came into Wellspring approximately 2.5 months ago. I had severe sciatic nerve pain to the point I fainted a couple of times with the intense pain. I also had a significant fear of chiropractors and being adjusted. Dr. Greg was very respectful of my fear and treated me slowly until I became more comfortable. I can honestly say I feel so much better. The sciatic nerve pain is gone and I am now equipped with the tools to try and prevent this in the future and have my quick fixes if I think it is coming back. Thank you Dr. Greg!!!!!!”
