Study Summary
This trial is testing a possible new treatment for chronic pelvic pain that involves using a low electrical current to stimulate certain areas of the brain. Up to 20 women who have already participated in a related trial will receive 5 treatments and then be followed up with 1 week after to see how they respond.

Study Objectives
Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.Primary outcome measures
To assess changes in EEG alpha brain waves in women with CPP after 5 sessions of transcranial direct simulation (tDCS) administered concurrently with guided imagery (GI).
Secondary outcome measures
To assess changes in QOL in women with CPP after 5 sessions of transcranial direct simulation (tDCS) administered concurrently with guided imagery (GI).
To assess changes in pain in women with CPP after 5 sessions of transcranial direct simulation (tDCS) administered concurrently with guided imagery (GI).
To assess changes in urinary symptoms in women with CPP after 5 sessions of transcranial direct simulation (tDCS) administered concurrently with guided imagery (GI) as measured by the Interstitial Cystitis Symptom Index and Problem Index ICSI-PI).
