Dr Belinda Srea

Chiropractor · Wellbeing Chiropractic Dandenong

I’m Dr Belinda Srea, chiropractor at our Dandenong clinic, and my appointments run in English or Khmer, which matters in a suburb so many Khmer-speaking families call home. I hold the RMIT double degree in health science and chiropractic, was named New Graduate Chiropractor of the Year early in practice, and the seminars have not stopped since, with SOT, Thompson and fertility and pregnancy study feeding straight into my care. My special interests arrived through my patients: pregnancy care, headaches and migraines, and the older adults who deserve gentleness with their thoroughness.

Three presentations I see most weeks in Dandenong

Headaches on repeat

It starts at the base of your skull and settles behind one eye by late afternoon. You’ve been calling it stress, but it’s turning up more weeks than not, and you’d like to know what’s actually driving it.

Stiff mornings, shorter walks

The first hour of the day takes longer to loosen up than it used to, and the walk to Dandenong Market feels further than the map says. You’d like to keep the garden going, and your independence with it.

Twenty-eight weeks & counting

Your lower back and pelvis have started to complain by evening, and sleep is harder to find. You want care from someone with a genuine interest in pregnancy work who adapts technique as the trimesters change.

These three don’t need the same care, and they shouldn’t get it. What they share is the starting point. Every new patient at Dandenong gets a full history and a physical assessment before I treat anything, then a plain-language explanation of what I’ve found. From there the plan is shaped by the person in front of me and what their body can manage right now. For patients moving through pregnancy or getting on in years, it keeps adjusting as their circumstances do.

From RMIT to the Dandenong clinic

I hold an RMIT double degree, a Bachelor of Health Science alongside a Bachelor of Applied Science in Chiropractic. Early in practice I was named New Graduate Chiropractor of the Year. I’m proud of that, though what it mostly reflects is how much I threw myself into learning early on. The seminars haven’t stopped since, with SOT, Thompson, and fertility and pregnancy care all feeding directly into my focus on women’s health and pregnancy.

I also speak Khmer, which counts for a lot in this part of Melbourne. Many Khmer-speaking families call Dandenong and its surrounds home, and some of my patients, particularly older ones, prefer to talk about their health in their first language. A care plan only works if you genuinely understand it, so being able to take a history and explain an assessment in Khmer means nothing gets lost in translation.

Outside the treatment room I’m a member of Chiropractic Australia and registered with AHPRA. Inside it, my thinking hasn’t changed much since university: support the nervous system, because a body that adapts well copes better with everything life asks of it, from pregnancy through to ageing.

Your first visit at Dandenong

My approach rests on one idea: if your nervous system is functioning well, your body adapts better to whatever life asks of it. So a first appointment with me starts slowly, on purpose. Before anything else I take a thorough history and complete a physical assessment, then I explain what I’ve found in plain language, in English or Khmer, and we build a care plan together. You’ll always know what I’m doing and why.

The techniques come after the thinking. I use Diversified adjusting where it suits, and reach for Activator or SOT when a lower-force option is the better fit, which is often the case during pregnancy and for older patients. The plan is never fixed either. What we do at the start usually looks different a month in, because your body changes and the care should change with it.

“It doesn’t matter what stage of life you’re in. It’s never too late to invest in your health.”

How I work in the treatment room

Diversified

Hands-on manual adjusting, the technique that defines traditional chiropractic. Specific and controlled, used where a joint isn’t moving as it should.

Activator

A spring-loaded tool no bigger than a pen light, used where low force is the right call. It gives a quick, light impulse to a precise point. A good option when manual adjusting is the wrong tool for your body or your comfort.

SOT

Sacro Occipital Technique uses careful positioning and padded blocks under the pelvis rather than force. I lean on it often in pregnancy care.

Questions patients ask

Yes. I speak Khmer and English, so the whole consult can run in the language that feels most natural, from the first questions through to explaining your assessment. Family members are welcome to sit in too.

I can’t answer that without assessing you first. Some headaches have a neck-related component that chiropractic care may help address, and others need a different practitioner altogether. Working out which type you have is exactly what the first visit is for, and if your presentation sits outside my scope, I’ll say so and refer you on.

No, and I’d say that with some conviction, since care for older adults is one of my special interests. I adapt techniques to suit, often using lower-force methods like Activator, and the goals are usually practical ones, like easing stiffness enough to keep gardening or walking comfortably.

The same careful start as anyone else: a thorough history and assessment first. From there I use low-force techniques like SOT and Activator and adapt positioning as your pregnancy progresses. Pregnancy care is one of my main interests, and I’ve attended additional seminars in fertility and pregnancy care to keep building on it.

If your extras cover includes chiropractic, yes, you can claim on the spot at Dandenong through HICAPS, which handles all major funds. Bring your fund card and reception will process it after your appointment.

No. Chiropractors are primary contact practitioners, so bookings go straight through by calling (03) 9020 2055 or online. If you already have scans or reports, bring them along, they’re useful context for your assessment.
