Rachel Frozenfar, DC

Sprained ankle and still barely able to lurch 3 – 5 steps after one week living in the horizontal. It’s a Saturday. I don’t want to see a Doctor as I know that won’t speed up recovery. Call a massage place thinking maybe they can tell me what’s wrong and help make foot feel less like it’s twisted and broken. No one answers. Look thru chiropractor list and see most are not open on Saturday. Getting desperate to find someone close as I’m not sure I can even drive a car at all, or if I can, not sure I can drive safely. Finally call Rachel Frozenfar’s office. The front office answers! She listens carefully, says Doctor will call me back as soon as she has a break. 10 minutes later, the Doctor calls back. She listens carefully. Says, «Come on in, someone just cancelled their appointment.» 30 minutes later, she’s diagnosing issue, starting treatment. 45 minutes later, I still have a bad sprain, but she got the pain level down, told me how to keep it down myself, and I know exactly what’s wrong versus wondering if there’s a bad break in the foot or a complete rip of a tendon or what is going on. The drive home is substantially less painful and I can drive much more safely. The foot can move more with less pain.
Thank you, Rachel Frozenfar.
Added benefit: We chatted about my bad neck, back, hips, shoulder joint that had been acting up. I have confidence that once I can walk again, she can help me better manage the chronic pain that I’ve just been living with for 24 years due to being back-​ended by someone going 50 mph at a stop light and tertiary fall out from those damages.

I don’t give five stars easily. Rachel Frozenfar is an excellent chiropractor. I just feel better after seeing her and that feeling lasts. Also, she has helped me with weight loss. I like that she doesn’t push treatment and only recommends what I need. I’m way too busy for too many appointments so I really appreciate that.

Dr Frozenfar helped me treat my lower back pain. It just took 2 – 3 sitting with Dr Rachel for the pain to subside. She popped my back and adjusted my spine and pelvis and the process didn’t hurt or cause discomfort. After my spinal adjustment, I feel 20 pounds lighter and can sit up and walk much straighter than before. After talking to her I also realized that the exercises which I was doing earlier were causing more stress on my back than solving my problem. She also taught me the right exercises for strengthening my back and core muscles using a foam roller. She also accepts all the major insurances which is another big plus.

Dr. Rachel really tries to help you by understanding your situation. she works with patients and treats according to patients body language. My girlfriend had a back pain that started due to long working hours at office.
Although she has suggested many exercises it didn’t completely solve our problem later we moved on. But Dr. Rachel was easy to work with and they helped us with some insurance issues too. THUMBS UP for the Idea.

Dr Frozenfar is a true healer. She has helped me with a chronic shoulder injury that I’ve had for 20 years. She treats soft tissue injuries as well as joint problems and unlike some «crunch, crack and off you go» chiropractors, she actually prescribes specific exercises to do outside her office. If you have an injury that no one else takes seriously, Dr Frozenfar is the person to call.

Rachel helped me with chest pains that were a result of stressful time at work. She has treated me for several weeks, and her work and the simple exercises routine she gave me got me back in shape.
It was a pure pleasure getting to know and working with Rachel; it’s been 5 years and the tips she has given me still work well. I guess it’s a sign of a good health care professional when you don’t need to come back, but I remain forever grateful.

Very helpful!
She is Willing to spend the time massaging out an area rather than just trying to crack you and giving up if it doesn’t move.
Wants to treat you for as long as necessary but is not someone who insists on ongoing weekly/​monthly appointments. Some places make you feel bad if you aren’t willing to come two times a week for months and months.
Dr frozenfar is reasonable.
Without insurance it is $ 50 a visit.

The best! Dr. Rachel is amazing. She is patient, professional, and so nice! Because of her treatment, my knees have not felt this good in a long time. I am enjoying tennis again!

Rachel is pleasant, professional, and above all she knows what she is doing.
She will send you to an MD if she feels you need a different Dr. she is fair and she will never pressure you to come to keep coming for maintenance appointments, she will suggest what your next steps and options should be and will let you decide what to do, no pressure, no followup calls and no questions asks.
She took care of me after 2 car accidents i had and i am as good as new.
Thanks! Iris.

Love the staff. Very knowledgeable and helpful. They used stim, ultrasound, and graston to help me with my Hamstrings, Back, Neck, and Shoulders. Accepts insurance and always fits you in if you really need it. Highly recommended!

Valley Chiropractic does it again! I hurt my neck in a fitness class. Dr. Rachel came up with a plan that included adjustments, massage and stretching. It was such a whole-​body approach– I loved the care and I’m grateful to be getting better now.

I am a pretty serious tennis player — but do lots of other things that get my body in trouble — and Dr. Rachel Frozenar is always able to pull me back to solid, healthy ground in a few days!
I am so grateful to Dr. Rachel and her staff, they are super friendly, cool and REAL. They get to the issue, they take care of it — and they don’t hassle you about coming back for supplements, massages, regimens — that don’t fit me.
My last episode was on 12÷4÷09 — saw Dr. Rachel 2x — good as new — this was a bad pain, couldn’t walk straight, burn in my lower back! This lady knows her stuff.

I’ve been going to Dr. Frozenfar on and off for several years, typically when I’m in acute pain. Her work has always expedited my recovery time. I’m a physical therapist and former professional dancer and have been to many chiropractors over the years, both here and on the east coast. Yesterday I decided to go for just a tune up, which I never do. I thought I was feeling fine beforehand but when I left I felt incredible! The ease with which I could move my neck and the relaxation in my upper traps and lower back was remarkable. The Dr. is warm, accommodating, extremely skilled and has a genuine desire to help people. That’s something you can’t fake. I’m sticking with her.

We came to the bay area 7 years ago and didn’t know anyone back then. I was looking for a good chiropractor to continue treatment as I had in the past.
The first year I went from one doctor to another (something like 4 to 5 different DC’s) but after every treatment I used to crawl to my car which was a new and quite high SUV. Not always easy to do with low back pain.
Well nothing seemed to work — until I got Dr Frozenfar’s name from a friend.
Since then, after over 5 years I’m more then fine — I feel like I was reborn. really ! She’s a highly educated person (both of us graduated from a well known university) and she as much as me is someone who has many MD’s as close friends. One thing I must say, that it is quite rare to meet someone like DR. Rachel.
First — she is not just good in what she does, but you really understand what it means when someone really loves their job & feels like it means the world to her to help people.
Second-​she is always patient with her patients & makes you feel relaxed & optimistic.
Every time I go there I feel thankful for all she did for me. At first I couldn’t really walk & now I hardly see her (I try to come for maintenance) and because I miss her too…
Anyway — I hope that you’ll enjoy the most talented & smart woman that I had the honor to meet, here, at the bay area.
good luck !
