Henri Puputti, Manse PP

Henri Puputti is a Finnish baseball player, who has won a huge bag of Finnish championship medals, played a dozen East-West games, and won a whole sheaf of titles including top batter, top runner and baseball player of the year. The icing on the cake, of course, was the 2021 Finnish championship win with Manse PP.

“In the previous season, we often had matches on consecutive days, so the help from Cloudboots to recover was sorely needed. We first tried different mains-powered models, but some of the team wanted more pressure.

For this reason, we decided to go with battery-powered Cloud8 ROGUE models. This was also a better choice for us on account of their being easier to travel with. We use both Cloudboots pants and booths. I mostly use the boots.

Here is a routine 45-minute Cloudboots session used by Henri Puputti of the Tampere-based Finnish baseball club Manse PP, the Finnish baseball champion in 2021.

I always start with a light treatment (levels 4 to 6), because I find that it takes a while for my legs to get used to the pressure. I mostly use the lymph programme for about 25 minutes, increasing the pressure towards the end to level 7 or 9. I then switch to a full leg squeeze, which I do for about ten cycles (about 10 min) with as much pressure as I can comfortably tolerate without grinding my teeth (level 8–10). Then I lower the pressure and go back to either the lymphatic drainage programme or the three-chamber massage programme for the last ten minutes.”

By the way, very nice photos of the Manse PP team! Photographer Juuso Koro, on Instagram @juusokuvaa https://juusokoro.fi/
