I do not think the article establishes sufficient notability; it cites no independent references (just articles written by Mr. Morter, and other chiropractics-related pages), and it is written in a promotional style. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 11:08, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep He appears to meet the first two items of WP:CREATIVE. The fact that he is mentioned on other chiropractics-related pages is an argument for notability per WP:CREATIVE bullet 1, not lack of notability, as it shows that his views aren't fringe theories but have some currency with his peers (ie people who are qualified to tell if he's a quack or not). Google books returns several references where he is not just the author, but cited by peers as well . He also meets WP:CREATIVE bullet 2 as the inventor of the "Bio Energetic Synchronization Technique", which may be dubious, but nonetheless seems to be in reasonably wide use amongst chiropractors and is therefore noteworthy.
