Study Summary

This study investigates comparing the effects of transcranial Pulsed Current Stimulation and transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) (Soterix ©) and their combination on neurophysiological outcomes on healthy subjects as well as on the clinical population for chronic visceral pain. The study also aims to evaluate the effects of these techniques on pain thresholds in healthy subjects as well as for chronic visceral pain patients.

Primary Outcome

The EEG test is performed to measure the electrical activity in the brain and to examine the dynamic changes.
