At n1 Physio Our Name Says It All
The concept of n=1 lies at the heart of everything we do. In research, n=1 refers to a single subject — and for us, that subject is you.


No Two Journeys Are the Same
We believe that every person is unique. No two injuries are the same, no two movement patterns are identical, and no two recovery journeys should ever be treated alike.
That’s why we reject cookie-cutter treatment plans and instead focus on individualised assessment and tailored care — because your story, your body, and your goals are unlike anyone else’s.

Getting to the Root of Your Recovery
We start by listening. Understanding the full context of your injury or concern is essential to what we do.
From there, we use state-of-the-art equipment and evidence-informed tools to dig deeper — not just treating the symptoms, but uncovering and addressing the root cause of the issue.
Our approach is precise, intentional, and built entirely around you.
Listen
We take the time to understand your story and the full context of your concern.
Assess

Treat
Our care is precise and tailored, focused on lasting recovery—not just symptom relief.
The Principles That Guide Our Care
At n1 Physio, we don’t do generic programs. Every plan is designed around your story, your body, and your goals—so your care evolves as you do.
The Principles That Guide Our Care
We are a team that values open-mindedness, curiosity, and connection. We believe better results come from treating the person, not just the injury.
Whether you’re an athlete returning to performance, someone navigating chronic pain, or simply aiming to move better and live stronger, we’ll walk with you every step of the way — with care that adapts to your needs as you evolve.

Our Promise to Put You First
At n1 Physio, your experience isn’t just personalised — it’s purpose-built. Because when it comes to your health, you are the only case that matters.
No generic programs. No assumptions. Just you, your goals, and a plan as individual as you are.
Because at n1 Physio, you are our number one — always.

Leading With Care & Purpose

Chris Slaviero
Hi, I’m Chris, the owner of n1 Physio. My journey into physiotherapy has been shaped by a lifelong passion for health, movement, and human connection. With a background in hospitality, I’ve always valued exceptional service and creating meaningful experiences —something I now bring into our clinics every day.
After completing degrees in Sport and Exercise Science and Nutrition, I went on to earn my Master of Physiotherapy from Sydney University. But once I stepped into private practice, I quickly realised that university knowledge alone wasn’t enough to make a great physiotherapist. There was a significant gap between theory and the hands-on skills, decision-making, and communication needed to truly make an impact on patients' lives.
That realisation has driven my approach to both physiotherapy and leadership. Within our clinics, I am passionate about fostering an environment where our team can grow into the best private practice clinicians in Australia. This means not only developing their technical skills and knowledge but also shaping them into excellent educators — helping them teach and empower our patients to take control of their health.
Sport, health, and fitness have always been a huge part of my life (I might be just a little obsessed with golf!). But beyond that, I’m fascinated by people’s stories. I love connecting with clients, understanding their journeys, and helping them achieve their goals — whether that’s recovering from injury, improving performance, or simply moving better in daily life.
Coming from a family of business owners, transitioning from employee to employer and mentor felt like a natural step. In 2018, I took the leap and I haven’t looked back since. Every day, I continue to learn — not just as a business owner, but as a physiotherapist, a mentor, and an educator. I’m incredibly proud of the high-performing, energetic team we’ve built, and I truly believe we have some of the best clinicians in the healthcare industry.
At n1 Physio, we don’t just treat injuries — we help people move, feel, and live better. I look forward to welcoming you into our clinic and showing you what sets us apart!
