Thank you for visiting our site to learn about our company and products! LiftVest was invented by Dr. Cynthia Cohen.

It has gone on to help thousands of semi-ambulatory people and their caregivers, including Pope John Paul II. LiftVest is a family-owned business located in New York City. We are dedicated to promoting the human dignity and safety of all people with mobility limitations and alleviating the job of their caregivers.
