Relaxation and Hypnosis Tapes right before surgery

Hello I was wondering if anyone who is post op listened to any relaxation tapes on the days leading up till surgery and even the day of surgery before you went in? When I had my psychological eval, I told the PHD doc that I tend to get nervous and would rather be in a relaxed mode to promote a calm demeanor and keep my blood pressure down. She then recommended some relaxation techniques and tapes for me.Did anyone else do such a thing? I heard about some people actually having their psychologist come into the OR to put you in a light trance during the surgery. What do you all think about this? Thanks for input..
