Meet Our Staff

Dr. Charles D. Erd grew up under chiropractic care in Blairstown, New Jersey. At an early age, he embraced the philosophy that health comes from the inside out, not from the outside in, and that the body itself, when properly regulated and maintained, has a better capacity to heal itself. 

 A graduate of Logan College of Chiropractic in St. Louis, MO, Dr. Erd is trained in a variety of chiropractic techniques, including the gentle, FDA approved ProAdjuster.   In addition, he also regularly attends post-doctoral continuing education to consistently offer his patients state-of-the-art clinical excellence.   Dr. Erd strongly believes that wellness is the new frontier in healthcare--and that chiropractic is the very best way to promote and maintain wellness.   What is the best part of being a chiropractor for Dr. Erd? It’s helping people achieve health naturally. He especially enjoys working with young children and helping them get on the wellness track early in their lives. His passion is providing individual service to each patient and always doing what’s in their best interests.  Dr. Erd also enjoys dispelling misconceptions people may have about chiropractic care, and showing them how chiropractic care contributes to a healthier lifestyle.  He offers on-site workshops and presentations for wellness-oriented groups, organizations and businesses.  

In advancing his own health goals, Dr. Erd participates in a regular workout schedule, drinks plenty of water, eats nutritious foods, maintains a positive outlook on life and receives regular chiropractic care.  A college soccer player, Dr. Erd still enjoys playing the game and looks forward to coaching young children in the near future. In his spare time, he enjoys kayaking and yoga. Dr. Erd is a member of the Association of New Jersey Chiropractors and has participated in Kids Day America, an international environmental, health and safety day dedicated to children’s well-being.
