A note on Holborn patients
Holborn's legal community — barristers, solicitors, and chambers staff — feature prominently in Krina's caseload. High cognitive load plus long hours in fixed postures make Inns-of-Court professionals classic candidates for stress-driven bruxism and cervicogenic headache; we work around court schedules with early-morning and lunchtime appointments.
What Krina treats
Patients from Holborn come to the clinic for four core conditions. All are treated one-on-one, with time-per-appointment that dental practices and NHS physio triage rarely allow.

Meet Krina — a note on Holborn patients
Why this catchment ends up here
Holborn's legal community — barristers, solicitors, chambers staff, and the wider Inns of Court network — makes up a distinct sub-caseload at the clinic. The mechanism here is almost always high cognitive load stacked onto long stretches in fixed postures: preparing skeletons, reviewing bundles, court hearings that don't allow a shoulder roll. Stress-driven bruxism plus a persistent forward-head posture is the classical driver combination we see, and it tends to present as morning temporal headache mimicking a tension headache but which responds much better to upper cervical mobilisation than to over-the-counter analgesia. Krina's Watson Headache® postgraduate training is squarely designed for this presentation — its diagnostic framework tests the upper three cervical segments as a headache generator, distinguishing between cervicogenic, migrainous, and TMD-driven patterns. Appointment scheduling wraps around court hours where possible: 7:30am and lunchtime slots are reserved for chambers staff who cannot leave a hearing. The clinic is a ten-minute walk from Chancery Lane and a quiet middle ground between the Inns and Bloomsbury — a useful buffer from the constant email flow of a working chambers.
