The Massage Girdle is a wide nut that is a treasure in Pikmin 2. Getting it requires you to master the use of see-saw platforms which are found near the Submerged Castle in the Perplexing Pool. Defeat the Yellow Wollywogs as you get to the area and tear down the black gate near the Glutton's Kitchen. There will be some Skitter Leaves and two Hermit Crawmads when you arrive. After you defeat them, take out the Withering Blowhog and the Water Dumples near the area and get the nectar near the hole if you need it. Toss 20 Blues onto the rock ledge and use the other 20 to throw onto the platforms. Lead one pilot to the first seesaw platform and keep on letting him get to the top of the ledge where your other Pikmin are. When transporting the treasure, make sure to defeat the Swooping Snitchbugs and Shearwigs that will be a nuisance on land.

How to obtain without using the Scales

The scales are actually not needed to retrieve this treasure, as there is an alternate way.This part is located where the Number 2 Ionium Jet was in Pikmin 1.Next to the where the piece is located, there is a small piece of land in front of another platform.If the player runs to the very edge of the land and throws a Blue Pikmin toward the platform with the piece, they will be thrown over the platform and grab the piece.
