I have been trying to find someone who could provide a REAL deep tissue massage. I've had too many massages where they advertise deep tissue massage only to receive a meek back polish. Finally, there is someone in Uptown who DOES deep tissue massage! A friend recommended to see Vedran at Peace is at Hand. I had some shoulder issues needing fixing after lifting weights. Vedran took time to understand my problem (intake took 25 minutes) and explained the plan of action. He also took time to educate me about my problem. His style of massage is focused, and with intent. Pressure tailored to my needs (Did I say I love a lot of pressure? :)) he also took time to show me some stretches to do at home. After only two sessions my shoulder felt almost 100% better! I also like that he always includes aromatherapy free of charge and that sessions are longer. Vedran's office provides for wonderful serene environment and has a zen vibe. Oh, and prices are awesome! Very deep discounts when buying packages. I've already stacked up on package of six massages. If you are looking for a glorified back polish with extra frills (to which you'll be charged an arm and a leg) then you are better off going to some expensive spa. But if you are looking for a good deep tissue massage from knowledgable therapist who will educate you about your body in the process, then you should come see Vedran! Peace read more

I have tried over half a dozen massage places in Uptown and finally found what I was looking for, a knowledgeable massage therapist with the insight and experience in deep tissue massage. Vedran's Peace is at Hand is the premiere place for deep tissue massage therapy, and a verity of other services to heal and rejuvenate your body. He is very professional and experienced, and takes time to listen and understand your particular situation; not to mention best prices! I love the on-line scheduling option; you can book it with a smartphone or just call to make an appointment. I have used the 100 minute option for overall body rejuvenation from martial arts training and running, and the 30 minute option to work on specific problem areas. The prices are really the best I have seen in Uptown and you get more time, i.e. 100 min not just 90 as others offer, or 70 instead of 60 minutes. I usually book a package so the prices are even cheaper. If you are only interested in a glorified back scratch then there are other and more expensive locations. If you want professional deep tissue massage at an unbeatable price, this is the place. Dr. Roland read more

I went to Peace Is At Hand because I hurt myself one day from falling during shoveling snow during winter. I could barely move my body, turn my neck, and my back was so sore, not a good feeling. So, after my session with Vedran the massage therapist, I felt like I was on cloud nine. It was the most soothing, relaxing, helpful, and relief that I have never felt anywhere else. He listened to my concerns and made his plan to help accomplish that goal for me. I was in awe of his variety skillful techniques, professional attitude, and knowledgeable. He was very generous of his time because I am pretty sure it was over 60 minutes and he was willing to go beyond to help my sore muscles. Of course, I was able to move my back and turn my neck as soon as the session was over. I would highly recommend Vedran to family, friends, coworkers, and neighbors because I have not gone anywhere else but to Peace Is At Hand. read more

I had a massage with Vedran 2 days ago. I went in with a specific point of tension in my upper back, kind of beneath the shoulder blade, probably due to my days in a prone position at my desk job and posture when I knit. His approach really worked for me. After pin-pointing the location of the tension he alternated deep, slow and persistent pressure in and around the area and from different angles with strong strokes to the entirety of my back. I feel like this repetition gave the whole area a chance to loosen up and let go incrementally. What's really great is that the pain, which before my massage no amount or direction of stretching could give any relief from, is gone. I also appreciate how easy it is to get to Vedran's office, it's right next to that bank across from Lucia's near 31st and Hennepin, very convenient for me. Thank You Vedran! I'll be back! read more

Best massage therapist ever! I've had massages over the years at various places but after seeing Vedran, I can't imagine going anywhere else. I initially went to Peace is at Hand to ease sore muscles, for stress relief, and relaxation. Then I acquired a low back injury... Vedran, along with my chiropractor, have since then performed miracles. I'm back to practicing yoga and running but still can't live without my massages. Prices are amazingly reasonable and with the very personalized massages, I can't imagine anyone leaving a session not feeling pain-free and floating in the clouds. Massage by Vedran is not a luxury (although it feels like one) but rather about making one's health (mental, physical, & spiritual) a priority! read more

I started seeing Vedran after reading other reviews of his work. I had severe neck and back pain and scheduled an appointment to see if he could help. Just as others wrote, I found Vedran to be extremely knowledgable, careful and very skilled. He was able to identify issues that were later confirmed by my physician and really helped me understand what was happening to my body and what I could do to help alleviate the pain. I've continued to see Vedran and feel very safe and comfortable in the Peace is at Hand environment. I highly recommend seeing him - and once you do, I promise you'll be hooked! read more

Vedran is a highly skilled, knowledgeable, focused and professional masseuse. I had a number of massages from him when I was performing in Minneapolis last spring, 2016. He gave me ideas for keeping up my endurance, lengthening and relaxing my muscles between performances, as well as providing a restorative and replenishing massage once a week. I highly recommend Vedran and "Peace is at Hand." He knows what he is doing ! His demeanor is calm and focused, upbeat and positive. Best massage therapist I found in Minneapolis. read more

I met Vedran 5 years ago after being involved in a severe car accident. I went to physical therapy and rehabilitation for several years following the accident. I know I would not be able to work without Vedran's amazing massages. He quickly learned where and how to work out all the problems associated with my accident. He was and still is a kind person who knows how to do deep tissue massage effectively for maximum results. Thanks Vedran and keep up the great work! read more

As a massage therapist myself I'm very picky with who I go to for my massages. With VEDRAN you always know that you're going to get nothing but the best. He's very knowledgable and always listens to what you need. He is the nicest guy you'll ever meet and that shows in every aspect of his work. VEDRAN is the one to go to if you want to feel like your getting your moneys worth and if you want to feel like you're more than just another client!!! read more

Vedran has been my massage therapist for quite some time now. Due to a complicated pregnancy I needed massages at least every two weeks. Vedran came to the rescue to accommodate me with the necessary items to make me as comfortable as possible. Till this day, I continue to see Vedran for massages due to stressful job, and etc. I recommend Vedran because he is friendly, knowledgeable, personal but keeps it professional at the same time. read more

Previously posted but apparently treated as fake by yelp robots. This review is legit. Hands down one of the best massage therapists in Minneapolis! Many massage therapists have a "routine" where they just do the same thing for every patient which doesn't address individual needs and problems. Vedran listens to your needs and tailors each session to what is going on in the body at the time. Highly recommend! read more

I have been seeing Vedran for just over a year now. He is a very skilled massage therapist and integrates trigger point therapy into his work. Also, he is able to do deep tissue massage and really work out the "kinks." Recently, I have been seeing Vedran for prenatal/pregnancy massage which I also highly recommend him for. Lastly, he is very courteous and professional. read more

Ved is great. He is extremely knowledgable and that shows. He spends time talking to you and trying to get to the root of the problem. I've had massages with other people who just rub you for a hour but you feel just as bad as before two days later. I have seen many different massage therapists and will never see anyone else other than Ved again, there's no point! read more

Had my first session with Ved yesterday and it was hands down one of my best treatments ever. Not only is his touch deliberate and soothing, but he seriously knows his stuff. No massage therapist has ever educated me, so thoroughly, on what my body was doing and what I could do at home to assist in it's healing. Definitely no need to look further! read more

I had a great massage with Vedran at Peace Is At Hand! He really paid attention and listened to some of the problems I've been having with different areas. Not only was the massage great, but he even recommended and taught me some stretches that have really helped with these areas. I will definitely be going back and highly recommend!! read more

I've been coming for a massage here ever since I got pregnant. Truly is a wonderful place to rejuvenate your body. I had pregnancy massage, deep tissue, Chinese cupping, myofascial release just to mention few. If you are looking for a great service, very reasonably priced, a little bit of heaven..., seriously! This is your place:) read more

Vedran is a sensitive, thorough, and engaging massage therapist. He is skilled at providing education, which is increases my understanding of the reasons for my aches and pains, as well as the strategies I may use to heal.

Vedran has so much knowledge about the body and its dynamics! His massages are the best of therapeutics, and he gives you lots of wonderful, smart advice about what you can do to further diminish your aches and pains and strengthen your body gently.

Vedran is an incredibly skilled massage therapist. He is extremely professional, and personable with a great sense of humor. As a full time hairstylist, my neck and back get quite sore so I get massages pretty regularly. Vedran's work always helps to ease my muscles. I highly reccomend Peace Is At Hand!! read more
