Client Reviews

Dr Frank takes the time to get to know you and all your issues. Very through and professional in his assessment. I’ve been going to chiropractors for 27 years and he really goes above and beyond compared to the dozen or so I’ve seen in my lifetime. If you’re looking for more than an in an out adjustment… to get to the route of your issues, give Dr Frank Abate a call!

I've been seeing Dr Frank for the past few months for help with soreness and discomfort in my neck and back. I have Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (hEDS) which affects the collagen in the body and leads to extra stretchy tendons and ligaments... Which leads to lots of muscle tension and tightness, along with subluxations of various body parts, tendons popping into the wrong places, injuries that never really heal, and a lot of back pain.

I've been dealing with this since 2010 and Dr. Frank's knowledge of the body, integration of rehab exercises, and advice have been invaluable to me. He does a lot more than adjustments during the visits, including soft tissue work, stretching, functional movement assessment, etc. Because he spends a lot more time with me than a lot of other patients, I pay a little more, but his prices are very reasonable and so worth it. We're making steady progress and he's always there to support me when I need it.
Dr. Frank is really easy to work with and he treats patients like equals, never talking down to me or making me feel uncomfortable. The office is pretty easy to find, and it's inside the Get Fit NH office space next to their gym. I would recommend Dr Frank to anyone, but especially to hEDS/EDS patients who need the extra time and care so that they can start to overcome years of muscle tension and injuries.

I highly recommend Back In Action Chiropractic for anyone dealing with injuries or chronic pain. Dr. Frank has helped me so much with issues with my neck and lower back that I thought I just had to live with - but for the most part, I am pain free now! He does a very thorough assessment, does soft tissue work and adjustments, and really gets to know his patients to provide the highest level of care. It’s always a good experience going to see Dr. Frank - he’s a great chiropractor and an awesome person too!

Just had my first chiropractor appointment with Dr. Frank Abbate (the son) very knowledgeable especially with regard to injury rehabilitation. Quickly diagnosed and resolved discomfort and provided exercises for at home care to build strength and stability.

Frank is awesome! I would highly recommend to anyone. As an athlete, he got me back into my sport within two weeks with just a couple visits and some at home stretching. As a first timer, he was very good at explaining what was going on and what we were doing. Very smart, cleanly, and kind, thank you Frank!

Frank is outstanding! Extremely patient, great listener, remarkably intuitive, understanding, kind and most of all effective. Every exercise he gave me had value, every motion was a step forward and every visit was time well spent. Very highly recommended!!!

I think it's easy to think of chiropractic as a profession who deals with back issues.

Not so. I had been dealing with a chronic cough for 4-5 months, and had been to the medical doctor twice, and the cough remained a mystery.

When I visited Dr. Abbate, he asked me LOTS of questions and LISTENED. He asked me about my physical activity, specifically what changed in my exercise routine at the time of the onset of my cough. In short, he found a link between my neglect of stretching and breathing properly to my chronic cough. Dr. Abbate's treatment immediately reduced, eventually eliminated my coughing.

He's amazing!

Frank is knowledgeable, professional, clean & makes his patients feel comfortable. He has extensive knowledge of different stretches and movements that can be done at home to relieve pain and has not only helped me with neck/back issues, but I also my father, whom I referred over to Frank for Siatic nerve pain issues, and it's completely improved his ailments as well.

Highly recommend Abbate Chiropractic!
