Advantages of ACR Over Manipulation Under Anesthesia

ACR allows more precision and control during capsular release.
ACR is a safer technique, preventing bone fractures and labral or rotator cuff injuries.
ACR reduces soft-tissue trauma and intra-articular bleeding, preventing further adhesions and delaying capsular healing. These issues allow less painful motion recovery.

ACR, arthroscopic capsular release.
