The '''Massage Girdle''' ({{j|マッサージはらまき|Massaaji Haramaki|Massage {{w|Haramaki (clothing)|Haramaki}}}}) is a treasure in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. It is actually a wide lug nut. Getting it requires the player to complete a puzzle involving [[scales]] which are found near the [[Submerged Castle]] in the [[Perplexing Pool]]; in {{p1}} this is where the [[Number 2 Ionium Jet|#2 Ionium Jet]] is located.

Defeat the [[Yellow Wollywog]]s in the area and tear down the black gate near the [[Glutton's Kitchen]]. There will be some [[Skitter Leaf|Skitter Leaves]] and two [[Hermit Crawmad]]s. Defeat them, then take out the [[Withering Blowhog]] and the [[Water Dumple]]s near the area and get the nectar near the hole if needed. Toss 20 [[Blue Pikmin|Blue]]s onto the rock ledge and use the other 20 to [[throw]] onto the platforms. Lead one pilot to the first [[seesaw block]] and keep on letting him get to the top of the ledge where the other [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] are; an explanation for this is below. When transporting the treasure, make sure to defeat the [[Swooping Snitchbug]]s and [[Shearwig]]s that will be a nuisance on land.

The set of four seesaw blocks is more complicatedly linked than other seesaw blocks in the game. Alternate blocks along the line are connected, one up, one down, like the pairs of blocks. Another twist is that each block along the line is a little higher than the last, the furthest from the ledge being the lowest. This means that a leader can only walk onto that end block. The following is a simple way to make the seesaw blocks work; they are numbered from 1 to 4, from the closest to the ledge to the furthest from it.

Now that there is a captain on the ledge, you can throw enough Pikmin to carry the treasure up to him, on the left of the highest block.

Although you are intended to use the scales, it is also possible to bypass them completely by [[Throw#Long throw trick|long-throwing]] Pikmin with a running start from a small strip of raised land which runs along the wall to the left of the treasure. This method is less time consuming and is arguably easier, but it requires good timing to ensure that the Pikmin don't miss their mark and hit the wall. In ''[[New Play Control! Pikmin 2]]'', this is easier due to the naturally increased throw range.

Another way to reach the treasure is by having a large group of Pikmin, throwing some of them at the ledge to the west of the treasure, and then [[Group move|moving the group]] through the ledge onto the platform with the treasure. This only works with a big group because of the increased group movement reach with a high number.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWsAgCmiVGE#t=1m36s YouTube video demonstrating the collection of the Massage Girdle by using the group move mechanic]</ref>
