The ribbon cutting ceremony was held outside the spa at 36 South St. near the corner of First and South Streets. The Foot Spa and Tea Bar offers Foot Reflexology while patrons enjoy complimentary teas. “Reflexology is a holistic technique that helps treat the entire body,” said Daly. “It can help with circulation and blood pressure, induce a deep sense of relaxation and help ease aches and pains among other benefits.” She explained that Reflexology involves the application of gentile pressure to specific points located on the feet. And these points, she added, relate to the internal organs, glands and structures of the body, Daly has been a massage therapist for 10 years and served as a supervisor for a large New Jersey spa before opening her own business. She and her husband Chris, a local electrical contractor, have lived in Warwick, where they raised their three sons, for 27 years.
