I believe not, and one of the problems even with water-divining, is that I've yet to come across a vaguely scientific experiment that has proved that it works.
About the most recent one I saw was a simple 'double-blind' experiment using a couple of bottles of water hidden in lots of buckets. The diviners that tried to find them found them exactly as often as sheer chance would statistically allow anyone to find them.
I've seen skeptics (Jane, for one) find things using divining rods but I've also seen experienced dowsers totally fail. Proving what things are & how they work etc before you've proven that they exist is extremely difficult....
For example, the force that people say that they detect that indicates a 'ley-line' hasn't been proved to exist, so how can you possibly prove that ley-lines exist, let alone what they are and how they can be used or what they signify?
Or summat.
