WWE star Carmella showed fans one of her preferred ways of recharging as she continues to keep herself in fantastic shape and recover for the wrestling ring!
The 34-year-old wrestling star has been recovering from an injury that has kept her away from in-ring action for the past month. During her recovery, she’s enjoying the benefits of an infrared sauna.
On Tuesday, Carmella, real name Leah Van Dale, shared a video on her official Instagram set to the song Memories by Northernelg. At the start of the clip, she’s wearing a sleeveless black crop top along with some stylish ripped jeans and black boots.
However, she backs behind a curtain in front of the infrared sauna, then closes the curtain. In a reveal similar to an on-stage magic act, she pulls apart the curtains and is now wearing a skimpy sports bra and light grey bicycle shorts.
She eventually gets into the infrared sauna, shuts the door, and sits on the bench. Carmella then uses a remote to make the necessary adjustments to start her session, with the light changing to red.
The outfit may allow the WWE star to benefit more from the infrared technology, which she also touted in her IG post’s caption.
“Restoring my energy in the best way in @aurasaunastudio infrared saunas 
,” she wrote, including hashtags for “#restoration” and “#energyhealing” along with a few for WWE.
In her Instagram caption, Carmella tagged Aura Sauna Studio, which details the benefits of infrared saunas on their website. According to the site’s About Page, those benefits include detoxification, anti-aging, pain relief, weight loss, improved circulation, and more.

“I’m not sure yet.. still recovering. Hopefully soon! I miss y’all,” Carmella responded.
Fans last saw Carmella in a prominent match at Money in the Bank, as she challenged Bianca Belair for the WWE Raw Women’s Championship. Unfortunately, WWE’s Princess of Staten Island lost that match.
