Yes, there are CDs with guided meditations that are extremely helpful. Comprehensive pain management approaches including pre-emptive analgesia with nerve blocks and the use of pain pumps is also very beneficial.

I personally recommend Chunyi Lin's CD "Small Universe". It's a CD from Spring Forest QiGong. Google It. It's a very powerful CD for balancing and healing the entire body.

Hope that helps
