Experimental Treatment
Group I: Electrical stimulationExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulator (TENS) will be applied to the foot via skin surface electrodes for a minimum of 2 hours per day for 1 week to 20 subjects. Subjects will be required to keep a daily voiding diary for one week before treatment to establish a control, during the treatment week and for one week after treatment. Subjects will also be asked to complete a validated questionnaire prior to treatment, during treatment week and one week after treatment. The primary outcomes of this study are improvement in objective measures of frequency as indicated by voiding diary and subjective symptom improvement based on questionnaire comparison.
