When someone asks an AI assistant for a kinesiologist after an injury, does it name your clinic?

When an AI assistant is asked where to find a kinesiologist for exercise therapy after an injury, or for a return-to-work program, its answer names a few clinics. Get Indexed asks AI engines questions like that about your town, shows you whether your clinic is among them and which clinics are named instead, and gives you the fixes for your site. The College of Kinesiologists of Ontario rules out anything that could be read as an endorsement of a member or his or her practice, from a person or an organization. The rules below are from the version of its advertising standard we read, revised in June 2022; we did not confirm that it is still the current one.

Questions our scan asks about kinesiology clinics

These are examples of the questions our scan and audit put to AI engines, written with your own service and town. They are not a claim about how patients search.

  • "Can you recommend a kinesiologist in Oshawa?"
  • "I need a kinesiologist near Whitby for exercise therapy after a knee injury. Who should I see?"
  • "What should I look for when choosing a kinesiologist in Oshawa, and who would you suggest?"
  • "Which clinic in Oshawa offers a return-to-work program?"

What we check for kinesiology clinics

  • In the implementation kit: Person markup for each kinesiologist your site names. A doctor title before a kinesiologist's name is left off, with a note saying why.
  • With your clinic's details on file (Audit + Advisor and Ongoing Advisor), the kit marks your clinic up as a LocalBusiness. It reads a saved category such as kinesiology clinic as kinesiology.

What the free scan and every paid audit read for any clinic is on our page for clinics. How we measure AI visibility.

Endorsements from people and from organizations

The standard we read rules out "any information that could be interpreted to be a testimonial and/or endorsement of a member or his or her practice from an individual or an organization." Our reading: that reaches a sports team's or an employer's words about your clinic, not only a client's.

It also separates what you show from what people find for themselves: the standard's definition is "the provision by a member of a subjective statement from a client", "distinct from research conducted by others (e.g., prospective clients) gathering information without the involvement of the member." Our reading: a rating a prospective client finds on Google is outside your site, but putting it on your site is providing it. We could not confirm a College rule on Google ratings as such.

Your college's advertising rules, and how we work within them

The College of Kinesiologists of Ontario's rules for advertising in Ontario, and the law's. Words in quotation marks are the source's own; the rest is our summary. Each links to the page it comes from.

Testimonials and endorsements

Claims and equipment

Fees

Titles

  • The College's advertising standard does not address titles; the law limits the doctor title in RHPA s. 33 (1), with no exemption for kinesiologists: "Except as allowed in the regulations under this Act, no person shall use the title "doctor", a variation or abbreviation or an equivalent in another language in the course of providing or offering to provide, in Ontario, health care to individuals." (Ontario e-Laws, Regulated Health Professions Act, 1991, checked on October 31, 2026)

How we work within them: the kit gives a kinesiology clinic no request for ratings and no rating markup, and drops the common claim wording it recognises (listed below). With Ongoing Advisor each change to your wording comes to you to approve first.

We are not your regulator and this is not legal advice; your college's current standard is the authority.

What the kit does for kinesiology clinics

  • No review request. The College of Kinesiologists of Ontario's advertising standard says advertising must not contain "any information that could be interpreted to be a testimonial".
  • Rewritten titles and descriptions, FAQ markup and service names leave out the common claim wording the kit recognises, such as claims of superiority, titles the college has not authorized, offers of free services, wording that quotes patients or shows their ratings and promises of results. Some of these are the College's rules (linked above); others the kit leaves out as a caution. No word list catches every phrasing, so check the rest of the kit's wording against the College's current standard.
  • Your clinic's name, address and phone number as the kit has them, and street addresses written the usual way, are not read as claim wording. When your clinic's name itself includes a word of that kind, the kit keeps it and says so, and when it leaves out a rewritten title or description or a page of its llms.txt draft, it says how many and why.
  • Practitioner markup without the doctor title on a practitioner's name, with a note saying why.
  • The kit does not check for an organization's words about your clinic, such as a team's or an employer's, or for a recommendation of one brand of equipment. Check your pages for them yourself.
  • It leaves out the offers of free services it can detect, as a caution: the standard we read does not address them.

Ask about Ongoing Advisor

Works with Wix, Squarespace and WordPress

Most fixes need no developer. The scan and the kit read your public pages, so they work whatever your site is built with. When your pages show they were made with WordPress, Squarespace, Wix or Webflow, the kit says where in that builder to paste each block of code. Or have the fixes made for you with Ongoing Advisor.

Your fixes stay yours

The work is done in your own accounts: your website and your Google Business Profile. None of it depends on us to keep working. If you stop, every fix stays where it was made, on your own site and profile.

Questions from kinesiologists

Can we post a sports team's thank-you note on our site?

Our reading is no. The standard we read rules out "any information that could be interpreted to be a testimonial and/or endorsement of a member or his or her practice from an individual or an organization." (Our reading of the sources on October 31, 2026. We are not your regulator and this is not legal advice; your college's current standard is the authority.)

Can our site show our Google star rating?

The standard's definition is "the provision by a member of a subjective statement from a client", and rules out anything that "could be interpreted to be a testimonial". We found no College rule on Google ratings as such; our reading is that showing them on your site is providing them. The kit adds no rating markup and no request for ratings. (Our reading of the sources on October 31, 2026. We are not your regulator and this is not legal advice; your college's current standard is the authority.)

Can we recommend one brand of fitness tracker or equipment?

Not as the one to use. The standard rules out "express or implied endorsement or recommendation for the exclusive use of a drug, product or brand of equipment". (Our reading of the sources on October 31, 2026. We are not your regulator and this is not legal advice; your college's current standard is the authority.)

What do we have to say about fees?

You may show your fees, the "funding models or insurance plans for which he or she accepts patients/clients" and the forms of payment. The standard adds that "the fee, which is available to all clients, will include all components of the service". (Our reading of the sources on October 31, 2026. We are not your regulator and this is not legal advice; your college's current standard is the authority.)

Can our kinesiologists use the doctor title?

Kinesiologists are not among the professions RHPA s. 33 lets use it, and O. Reg. 201/23 (https://www.ontario.ca/laws/regulation/230201) adds none, so the kit leaves it off a kinesiologist's name in its markup. The College's advertising standard we read does not cover titles. (Our reading of the sources on October 31, 2026. We are not your regulator and this is not legal advice; your college's current standard is the authority.)

Is the June 2022 standard still the current one?

It is the version we read, revised in June 2022. We did not confirm on the College's standards page that it is still current, so check there before you rely on it. (Our reading of the sources on October 31, 2026. We are not your regulator and this is not legal advice; your college's current standard is the authority.)
