Beacher Stellino aims to increase awareness of red light therapy benefits

By CONRAD MURPHY

Local author and Beach resident Ben Stellino is looking to take her red light therapy service to the next level by partnering with the manufacturer of the RX light therapy machine. This collaboration aims to increase awareness of red light therapy by bringing it into hospitals and medical practices.

Stellino first discovered red light therapy after a car accident triggered her fibromyalgia.

“I had severe fibromyalgia, and I was using every modality you can imagine—chiropractic, massages, acupuncture—and they were all sort of keeping me OK,” said Stellino.

Still dealing with the pain, she decided to search for an alternative.

“I went out on a limb and bought a unit. I bought it to heal myself, and then I saw the results, and they were unbelievable,” said Stellino.

With success in her personal treatment, Stellino, after gaining certifications, began offering treatments with her machine to members of the community. She said the therapy can treat arthritis, fibromyalgia, shingles, and sports-related injuries.

“I’m still offering people who are interested a chance to come and get treatment,” said Stellino, but she is now “focusing on trying to get clinics to implement this system.”

Stellino and her company, LightCare Connect, are specifically focusing on implementing the RX model, as Stellino said its wavelength production is superior to others.

“Our device delivers 10 wavelengths. Why is that important? The more wavelengths, the deeper it penetrates,” said Stellino.

She clarified that the 10 wavelengths of the machine can penetrate up to three inches below the skin, targeting injured or inflamed tissues. The 10 wavelengths are higher than the two to four wavelengths offered by other systems, according to Stellino.

The treatment itself is pain-free and can take as little as 20 minutes, she said. Once the red light is aimed at the target area, it emanates down, increasing blood flow while decreasing inflammation.

“If you reduce inflammation, you’re going to get rid of pain,” said Stellino.

She is hopeful that the growing interest in alternative pain treatments will help red light therapy gain further acceptance in the medical field. She believes integrating this technology into hospitals and medical offices can provide a non-invasive, drug-free option for patients dealing with chronic pain and injuries.

“There’s evidence, medical evidence, to show that it helps with addiction and pain. So imagine if we could help that crisis with red light therapy,” said Stellino.

Residents and medical professionals interested in learning more about red light therapy and RX devices can contact Stellino directly for more information. Through community partnerships, Stellino hopes red light therapy will become a widely accepted tool, providing effective relief and recovery options for patients who need it.

“Our mission is to get our units, the RX units, into as many clinics worldwide. Not just in Canada… but we’ve been talking to clinics all over the world,” said Stellino.
