57 y.o. Woman Gives Birth, Tune-ups
The Goddess Repair Shop.
Aleta St. James, the 57-year-old who delivered twins in November, didn’t come by her energy by heredity alone. Nor does she have a guardian angel for her youthful aura (though she is Curtis Sliwa’s sister). She’s quietly been operating an anti-aging spa in her apartment for two years. Now she’s taken it to the street and opened the Goddess Repair Shop, on East 50th Street. It features electronic muscle-stimulation treatments to reduce wrinkles, firm muscles in the face and neck, cleanse organs, and “increase the turn-on mechanisms that control DNA, protein synthesis, collagen, and elastin production, thus increasing the rate of cellular repair and replication.” In vitro is not available, however.
