Chris Slaviero
Principal Physiotherapist
On first graduating as a Physiotherapist, Chris' learning curve was immense. Having completed degrees in Sport and Exercise Science, and Nutrition, and then a Masters of Physiotherapy at Sydney University, the realisation quickly hit him; there was a wide gap between the knowledge he gained at university and the knowledge and skills he required to be a great physiotherapist in private practice.
Driven by this realisation, Chris strives to create the very best learning environment he can, to shape the therapists that he employs into Australia's leading private practice practitioners. This includes supporting them to develop their technical skills and knowledge as well as teaching them to be the best educators and teachers of their patients. Sport, health, and fitness have always been, and continue to be, a passion of Chris' (he is an absolute golf-tragic).
Chris' other passion is hearing people's stories! At Physio Inq, he has combined these two passions and developed relationships with the best gyms and sports clubs in the Penrith area. Coming from a family of business owners, the progression from employee and mentee to employer and mentor was a natural progression for Chris.
In 2018, after working at Physio Inq Glenmore Park for 3 years, Chris made the bold move of purchasing both Physio Inq Penrith and South Penrith. He hasn't looked back. Chris continues to learn as a business owner, a therapist, a mentor, and an educator, and can honestly say that he has the greatest amount of support, from the best team in the healthcare industry.
