Meet the Staff

Kim Kolb, EFT-ADV Practitioner
CPT, Post Rehab Conditioning Specialist

All my life I have had a passion for health and wellness and all that it encompasses.

After having back surgery two years ago and watching my sons and husband go through shoulder surgeries, this passion not only grew but changed in its focus. My true desire now is to help others avoid the health issues I’ve seen and experienced by helping them achieve muscle balance, nutritional health and emotional well being.

After many years of teaching aerobics and leading other health oriented classes in California, I became a Certified Personal Trainer after relocating to Ohio. After working at Ballys and training people privately at their homes, I ventured into the world of physical therapy and sports medicine where I worked for Dr. Antony George in Willoughby Hills, Ohio. Seeing a need to help bridge the gap between healthcare and fitness, I recently received my Post Rehab Certification and am currently studying for Medical Exercise Specialist.


Laura Dugan, CPT

Laura is a Certified Personal Trainer through The American College of Sports Medicine and a Certified Flexibility Specialist through the founder of Active-Isolated Stretching, Aaron Mattes. She has worked with World Renowed Trainers, Jim and Phil Wharton at the Wharton Performance Center specializing in the Active-Isolated Stretching technique.

With over 20 years of experience, Laura can teach you this ground breaking flexibility technique that has helped millions of people and professional athletes.  

As we grow older our tendons and ligaments lose their elasticity, resulting in tight muscles and joints. With this decrease in movement, blood circulation decreases to the muscles and joints which makes us more prone to injury. Active-Isolated can open up your joints, increase circulation and rejuvinate you.

My hours @ Exercise By Design are Tuesdays 8am to 11:30am and 3pm to 7pm. I am also available Thursdays, 8am to 12pm and Saturday by appointment. 


Marjorie L. Esser, LMT

I have been a Licensed Massage Therapist since 1993. I am trained in Myofascial Release, Trigger Point Therapy, Muscle Energy Technique, Swedish Massage, Infant Massage, and Neuromuscular Therapy. I am certified in Muscle Release Technique™, Emotional Freedom Technique™ and Reiki. I have been trained in MRT™ with the founder, Michael Young, NCBTMB, founder of RUIT® which is a technique for repetitive use injuries. MRT™ is a technique that combines pressure with stretch and breathwork that when applied, will give relief from pain in approximately one treatment. Once applied, muscle memory is restored, tissue is lengthened, breaking up scar tissue and bringing nutrition to the area through improved blood flow. I have worked on various members of the Cleveland-San Jose Ballet Company, various professional athletes and some prominent musicians. I have provided chair massage to several local schools for teacher appreciation day. I have extensive experience in working on people who suffer with chronic pain. I have worked with several Chiropractors and Occupational Medicine Physicians. I have been involved in a national pain management blind-study offered through University Hospitals at an occupational medicine clinic. I have taught for the Massotherapy program at Cuyahoga Community College.
