Meyers said Enfusia plans to release two new products in 2017. Breathe Easy is a bath soak, which can also be used as a steep and will provide sinus relief, and Muscle Rehab is a bath bomb and soak for athletes to aid with sore muscles. Meyers also said her goals for 2017 will be to streamline production and continue investing in equipment and employees to ensure efficiency.
