Link: http://www.massagetherapyfoundation.org/researchdb.html
Description: The Massage Therapy Research Database contains over 4,800 records including both indexed and non-indexed journal citations. Requires free registration.

Beginning in 2006, additions to the Database will be of non-Medline indexed journals only. This is due to a new feature on the website which allows you to access live searches in PubMed. The following non-Medline indexed journals are included in these updates: Journal of Bodywork and Movement Therapies, Journal of Soft Tissue Manipulation, Massage and Bodywork, Massage Magazine and Massage Therapy Journal (MTJ). The Database will continue to retain the existing citations that pre-date 2006. Non-Medline citations undergo peer review before being added to the database.
