The result was keep. Definitely a notable treatment modality, not a proprietary or copyrighted phrase (myo = muscle). Current version isn't a copyvio, but it could use some cleanup & expansion. - Krakatoa  Katie  20:50, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

 * Do not Delete! I will be happy to add more to this entry (when I am not at work ;)  Myotherapy is an amazing form of muscle therapy, and has huge applications in dealing with chronic pain, injuries and more.  I practice it myself daily.  That is the best part - it is accessable to everyone.  While it is extremely helpful to go to a practitioner for help on a big problem, day to day you can maintain on your own.  I look forward to adding to this! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dustypony (talk • contribs)
 * Erring on the side of caution Myotheraphy seems to be quite widespread with a bit in the media about it. -- Ļıßζېấשּׂ~ۘ Ώƒ ﻚĢęخ (talk) 02:51, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
 * comment doesn't look like a copyvio to me. The material may have been copied from that source, but it's been all been rewritten... Pete.Hurd (talk) 04:44, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
 * keep seems like the topic is extensively covered in sources in the real world, I can't see the grounds for deletion. Pete.Hurd (talk) 04:59, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep/merge This seems to be a proprietary name for physical therapy akin to Rolfing and Acupressure. Its techniques seem to be from the toolkit of general physiotherapy (which I'm currently getting) and I'm not convinced that it deserves to stand by itself.  Given the current state of the article, the essence of it could be merged into physical therapy Colonel Warden (talk) 11:00, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - no evidence of notability that I can see. It could always be merged into another article, but I don't think we need this one. Terraxos (talk) 23:53, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak Delete unless there is much better sourcing to show notability in its own right.DGG (talk) 19:40, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. It's Notable. See http://myotherapy.org GeorgeLouis (talk) 06:54, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - a Google books search reveals 287 mentions of myotherapy in other publications. The problem with this article is not notability, but proper formatting and inclusion of references - which can be worked on. Marontia (talk) 17:37, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
