NEOTECH ACQUIRES THE NAVEL CRADLE™

A Non-invasive Solution for Umbilical Hernias

SANTA CLARITA, Calif., Oct. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Neotech Products is excited to announce the acquisition of the Navel Cradle Umbilical Hernia Adhesive Strap!

The Navel Cradle is a proactive product for babies with umbilical hernias. It is designed to support the abdominal muscles at the midline in order to reduce the intestinal protrusion. It was developed by Cathlyn Corrado, PT, DPT, PCS, a board certified pediatric physical therapist. She's also a mom of three.

"My son developed an umbilical hernia at 3 months," Corrado said. "The pediatrician told us to wait and hope it gets better on its own. If it wasn't gone by the time he was up and walking, he would need surgery. Still present at 13 months, I wanted an alternative to surgery. My research and experience led to the development of the Navel Cradle."

The center of the product helps bring the separated tissue together. The tails are placed without tension on the skin on a diagonal to facilitate the function of the internal and external obliques that cross through the umbilical area.

The Navel Cradle:

• Provides a non-invasive alternative to "wait and see" or surgery
• Helps to reduce intestinal protrusion
• Stretches for natural breathing and mobility

For Neotech, the Navel Cradle adds a new product suitable for the hospital and for the out-patient pediatric market. "This an exciting addition to our product family," Craig McCrary, Neotech President said. "It's a simple, yet innovative solution that may help children avoid surgery. The stories and the testimonials from the parents are quite powerful."

"I partnered with Neotech because our philosophies of empowering parents with non-invasive, proactive, and gentle interventions aligned so well," Corrado said.

"Neotech cares deeply about their mission and how their products are made. They have embraced me and the Navel Cradle and I couldn't be more excited to take the next step of this journey with them at the helm."

Cathlyn Corrado serves as the Senior Pediatric PT & Site Manager at the University of Rochester Medical Center. She has 16 years of experience including five years in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
