A pressure applicating assembly for treatment of menstrual cramps and other discomfort; the apparatus comprising a pressure applicator apparatus and a flexible strap. The pressure applicator apparatus comprises a plurality of styluses arranged in both a direction parallel to the strap and a direction perpendicular to the strap. The pressure applicator apparatus is secured to a patient using the strap in a manner to apply pressure to a tender location on an interior region of a patient's calf. The applied pressure can be employed to relieve the patient of menstrual discomfort by identifying the tender spot by applying light pressure to a menstrual discomfort controlling pressure region. The identified tender spots are considered the menstrual discomfort controlling pressure points. The plurality of styluses applies a distributed pressure to the region to ensure the tender spots are sufficiently addressed, thus relieving the patient of the discomfort.
