CRIT’s model of care works on four pillars, Soriano said: “The physical, the psychological, the social and the spiritual. When you have all these pillars working in conjunction, and you have all the team under the same roof working together, then that’s when your magic starts to happen.”. It provides therapies for a wide range of conditions, including cerebral palsy, brain injury, neuromuscular diseases, spinal cord injuries, skeletal disorders and congenital and genetic diseases.
