The Feldenkrais Method® is a somatic educational system designed by Moshé Feldenkrais (1904–1984). The Feldenkrais method is designed to improve movement repertoire, aiming to expand and refine the use of the self through awareness, in order to reduce pain or limitations in movement, and promote general well-being. The Feldenkrais Method is often regarded as falling within the field of integrative medicine or complementary medicine. Current research on neuroplasticity, by scientists such as Norman Doidge and Michael Merzenich, may support Feldenkrais' key theories of the possibilities of somatic re-education.

Feldenkrais believed that health is founded on good function. He asserted that his method of body/mind exploration improved functioning (health) by making individuals more aware: "What I am after is more flexible minds, not just more flexible bodies". The Feldenkrais Method tends towards being a form of self-education and mind-body development, rather than a manipulative therapy. Feldenkrais' approach was essentially experiential, grounded in tools of self-discovery and movement enquiry.

Feldenkrais' background as a physicist, engineer and judo master deeply informed his research.
