The Joint Chiropractic - Copperfield

Dr. Jason Basile joined The Joint Chiropractic at the Copperfield location on April 1, 2015, and his patients have been smiling ever since.

As a family chiropractor, he has been responsible for educating, examining and treating patients of all ages since joining the chiropractic field in 1998. He developed his reputation in Houston after attending college at Delaware -- where he earned a degree in exercise physiology -- and Life University College of Chiropractic in Georgia, where he graduated with the highest distinction, Summa Cum Laude.

“The thing I love best about being a chiropractor is being able to help people,” says Dr. Basile, who is accomplished in Diversified, Thompson and Activator methods, and was voted one of Houston’s Top Chiropractors from 2008-12 in H-Texas Magazine.

The spark of chiropractic as a career was ignited in his teens.

“After an injury I had in high school, when medicine failed to work, the chiropractor got me back on my feet,” Dr. Basile says.

While on his feet, he enjoys mountain biking and weight training.

His time at The Joint Chiropractic-Copperfield has been rewarding, he says, which pays dividends on both sides of the reception desk.

“We have a great team,” Dr. Basile says, “that genuinely strives to do the best for the patients we see.”

Dr. Basile says the one thing he must have in his refrigerator at all times is Diet Mountain Dew.

If he had the opportunity to have drinks with any four people, he would choose tech visionary Elon Musk, mogul Mark Cuban, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg and NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.

“These men are leaders in their fields and visionaries with differing viewpoints that would make for lively conversation,” Dr. Basile says.

And with a fridge full of Diet Mountain Dew, that conversation could probably go all night.

Dr. Sophia Bekiaris -- you can call her Dr. Sophia -- joined The Joint Chiropractic in 2018 and works at a number of different clinics in the greater Houston area, including Cypress. A 2005 graduate of University of Houston with a bachelor’s degree in psychology, she graduated magna cum laude. She went on to earn her doctorate in chiropractic from Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa.

“Chiropractic is such a great field and the thing I like most about it is improving the quality of life of my patients naturally,” Dr. Sophia says. “I love seeing a patient’s face light up when they feel better instantly.”

A product of the Houston area, she has a pit bull named Atlas and a husband who, she says, “moved halfway across the globe for me.”

She likes being active in her spare time and enjoys yoga, gardening, and making cheese.

She knew chiropractic was her calling when she experienced its effects first-hand. “I was suffering from really bad migraine headaches,” Dr. Sophia says. “Chiropractic was the only treatment that was able to help. It provided pain relief and allowed me to function properly, like a regular person.”

Dr. Sophia says the one thing she must always have in her kitchen is avocados.

Among those historical figures that she would like to meet for her dream dinner, she would like to pair Elon Musk (“a modern-day genius”) with Beethoven (“he was a deaf musician!”), She would also include Mother Teresa and Mahatma Gandhi on her guest list. “They advocated peace and respect toward fellow humans,” Dr. Sophia says. “We need more of that.”

Dr. Sophia once had the opportunity to practice in Athens, Greece, providing her one of the coolest experiences ever. “It was interesting because there is no regulating agency, so anyone can claim they are a chiropractor,” she says. “However, when people find a legitimate doctor of chiropractic, their entire outlook changes.”
