Feldenkrais-related Research
The most comprehensive list of Feldnkrais-related research is probably the one compiled by The Australian Guild (click on the name)

Another very good source for research is the IFF website
Including:
1) A good  list of feldenkrais research and articles sortable in different ways
2) The new Research Journal including great articles on how to do a case study (and lots of examples) science for beginners, the debate around research models and what its for (see especially Jim Stephens and Carl Ginsberg for differing views)

I am adding a link to a nutritionist, Alison McIntosh here. I have to admit that this is my sister, but she is here because what she does is provide excellent research as well advice and that’s really invaluable. There are many ways that an understanding of nutrition is relevant for healthy functioning of the nervous, skeletal and muscular systems in addition to well-being. She is also very person-centred and has an interest in the developing world of functional medicine.
