Site: http://www.rivernorthmassage.com/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/rivernorthmassage.com
Scanned: 2026-10-24 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
River North Massage Therapy Center is mostly ready for agents.
Some AI assistants are turned away by River North Massage Therapy Center's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds a way to book or order directly, through Mindbody.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://brandedweb.mindbodyonline.com/embed/widget.js (through mindbody acting for the business)
- Phone: +13128542834

## What to fix first
- **No price list of services found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer and what does it cost?' from marketplaces and directories instead. Add a page that lists services and prices as text, and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+3.3 points) Requests as ClaudeBot (challenge:attention required) were refused, but a normal browser got the page. That's usually a bot list at the host or in a firewall that the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing
- **No llms.txt.** (no points, but worth doing) Optional for now and cheap to add. It's a short text file that describes the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business

## Fix kit: What to paste

llms.txt. Save as /llms.txt at the root of the site.

- **Structured data found (LocalBusiness).** address, phone, opening hours
- **Appointments through mindbody on your own domain.** There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours.
- **Mindbody works with agents through its partners.** Mindbody's consumer agreement (July 2025), section 20(1), bars accessing or monitoring its systems by robot, spider, scraper or other automated means; approved Network Partners may book for users through the Affiliate API. Terms read on 2026-10-15: https://www.mindbodyonline.com/consumer-agreement. An assistant that isn't a partner may not be able to finish there. A direct path on your own domain works for all of them.
