BSD President

Dr. Patrick MacManaway grew up immersed in an environment of wholism and liberal thought at The Westbank Natural Health Centre - which, founded by his parents in 1959 is the oldest established Healing Centre in Scotland.

Training in therapeutic dowsing, spinal adjustment, therapeutic massage, the clinical use of flower essences and a variety of related healing modalities at Westbank, he then studied Medicine, graduating from the University of Edinburgh Medical School in 1990.

He undertook a general internship in the National Health Service covering general medicine, intensive care, geriatrics, general surgery and orthopedics and gained his Medical Registration in 1991.

Embarking on an exploration of subtle energies in the landscape and their impact on physiological systems, he then spent two years in the USA studying dowsing, earth energies and the geomantic awareness of indigenous and primal cultures, following which he undertook a study of the Chinese geomantic system of Feng Shui.

Since 1994 Dr. MacManaway has been a full time practitioner of Geomancy, teaching and consulting in the UK, Ireland and the USA.

He has presented to the American Holistic Medical Association, the Northeast Sustainable Energy Association (USA), the Gatekeeper Trust (UK), the National Federation of Spiritual Healers (UK), the American Society of Dowsers and the British Society of Dowsers, and numerous groups of interested members of the public and health care professionals.

He is a partner of the Westbank Natural Health Centre in Scotland and the founder of Whole Earth Geomancy in Vermont.

He has pioneered and continues to develop new and old technologies for working with the earths' subtle energy system to promote ease, harmony and well-being both at home and in the work place.
