About First Light Chiropractic
& Family Wellness
Our Mission
First Light Chiropractic began in 2024 in Salt Lake City, Utah, where Dr. Lily Fackrell spent time caring for families in the greater Salt Lake area—her husband Thomas’s hometown. In 2025, she returned to her roots in Missouri with a vision to serve her own community and raise a healthy, vibrant family in the place she calls home.
First Light Chiropractic and Wellness exists to serve cycle breakers—individuals and families—who are ready to embark on their healing journey through faith-rooted, heart-centered, brain-based care. We honor the sacred design of the body through chiropractic, nervous system regulation, and holistic healing. By blending modern science and ancient techniques, we clear interference, restore regulation, and empower the full expression of life across generations, homes, and communities. Our goal is to help your body adapt better to the stresses of everyday life in order to live life to the fullest. We believe God intended us to Shine Our Light!
Hi, I'm Dr. Lily
Chiropractor, nervous system advocate, generational healer—and someone who takes healing personally.
I created First Light for people like you: the ones who know deep down that health isn’t just about symptoms—it’s about legacy. I believe that when we heal, we don’t just change our own lives. We change the lives of our children, our partners, and our communities.
​
This work is my calling—and my lifestyle. I care for my own nervous system with intention so I can live fully, love well, and show up for the people I cherish most. I want the same for you.
​
My approach is grounded in science, guided by spirit, and rooted in the belief that regulated people change the world—starting with themselves.
My passion for running, health, and continual learning has fueled my mission to create a healing community where people feel seen, supported, and empowered. I believe healing is personal—and powerful. Our nervous systems carry the imprints of our stories: our stress, our joy, our trauma, and our resilience.
​
When we start to heal—physically, emotionally, chemically, and energetically—we begin to change how our body experiences the world. And that change doesn’t stop with us. Regulating our own nervous system creates a ripple effect that touches our children, our partners, and even future generations.
​
This is why I do what I do. To support cycle breakers. To help people like you reclaim your health, restore your nervous system, and pass peace—not pressure—forward.
I’d love to walk alongside you on your healing journey.

Why We Do It
We do this because healing one person has the power to shift an entire generation.
At First Light Chiropractic and Wellness, we believe that every regulated nervous system becomes a ripple of restoration—impacting not just the individual, but their loved ones, their children, their friends, and their community.
Our purpose is to guide cycle breakers on their healing journey—to help them move from reactive “sick care” to proactive, soul-aligned health care. Through faith-rooted, heart-centered, brain-based care, we support people in becoming conscious stewards of their body, mind, and spirit—so they can reclaim their legacy and pass peace, not pressure, to the next generation.
