    About This Study

    The purpose of this study is to see how well a non-invasive therapy works to treat interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome. The therapy uses a device that sends magnetic waves into the body which may help the body better heal itself. We want to find out if the study therapy can reduce pelvic pain and urinary symptoms.

    Need female volunteers diagnosed with interstitial cystitis or bladder pain syndrome. Taking part in this study will involve 2 visits to the Urology clinic and last about 4 months (16 weeks). Using the study device will last 4 weeks but voiding diaries and questionnaires will be completed once a month for the following 3 months. Study team will discuss study details with you.
