Tortle Product LLC

Tortle Product LLC manufactures FDA-cleared Class I medical devices designed to prevent and correct positional plagiocephaly (flat head syndrome) and torticollis in infants. Founded by pediatrician Dr. Jane Scott, the company offers a suite of corrective beanies for both outpatient and hospital use. The flagship Tortle Air corrective beanie is a soft, snug device that gently encourages infants to reposition their heads, reducing flat spots and promoting balanced neck muscle development. The company also manufactures in-hospital products including the Tortle Midliner and Tortle Midliner MAX, designed for neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) and compatible with respiratory devices. These products support nursing and therapy protocols in hospital settings. Tortle beanies are available in multiple sizes (Small, Medium, Large) and designs. The FDA clearance distinguishes Tortle devices from unsafe head-shaping pillows, which the FDA warned against in November 2022. Tortle products are HSA and FSA eligible, making them accessible to families seeking non-invasive preventive and corrective care. The devices address two prevalent infant medical issues: positional head flattening affecting approximately 50% of U.S. infants by three months, and torticollis, which can require costly physical therapy if untreated. Tortle's products serve both outpatient families and hospital NICU environments, providing an evidence-based alternative to physical therapy and surgical interventions.
