Clayton Burnett, DC - Lake Charles Chiropractor

03/31/2026

👋 Meet the Doctor – Dr. Clayton Burnett

Originally from Rayne, Louisiana, Dr. Burnett moved to Lake Charles in 2011 and has proudly called the area home ever since. He earned his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Texas Chiropractic College, graduating as valedictorian of his class. Before chiropractic school, he studied Biology and Chemistry at McNeese State University and became a Nationally Registered EMT. He has advanced training in several treatment techniques including dry needling, soft tissue therapy, rehabilitation exercise, and functional taping to help patients move better and recover faster.

Outside the clinic, Dr. Burnett enjoys spending time with his wife Savannah and their two kids, Vivienne and Liam. You’ll usually find him coaching youth baseball, football, or basketball, hunting and fishing, cooking, working out, or cheering on the LSU Tigers and McNeese Cowboys.

Helping people feel better and stay active is something he’s passionate about — both in the clinic and in the community.

"Specifically, they’ve shown that holding static positions for 10 to 30 seconds at a time — which is known as isometric exercise — can help people recover completely from tendon and ligament injuries, which was previously thought to be impossible."

Each year, more money is spent in the U.S. on musculoskeletal pain than on heart disease and diabetes combined. Exercise physiologist Keith Baar, a professor of Neurobiology, Physiology and Behavior and Physiology and Membrane Biology, is working to change that.

Injury and durability advantages of multisport participation were most pronounced in speed‐ and agility‐dependent positions, including running backs, wide receivers, defensive backs, and linebackers.

These findings support youth sport diversification and suggest that early football specialization is not required for elite performance or career longevity.

Early sport specialization during adolescence has been linked to overuse injuries in several sports, yet its long‐term impact in American football remains underexplored. The purpose of this study is to examine whether early specialization in ...
