About Malou

Hi, I’m Malou (Xiao Chun Wang). I am a professional and confident Dublin-based Chinese acupuncturist with over 25 years of experience, both, in China and Dublin.

Following three years nursing training, which involved studying Acupuncture and the use of Chinese herbs, I practiced as a Traditional Chinese Medicine nurse for many years in a hospital in Shanghai. I worked in the Department of Internal Diseases and the Department of Neurosurgery, where Western and Chinese Medicine are used in tandem in order to speed up patient’s recovery.

To be able to practice acupuncture in Ireland, I underwent a further two-year study and gained a Diploma in Acupuncture from Shanghai Acupuncture College Ireland. In 2010, I have completed a Herbal course in an Acupuncture Foundation, after which I went back to Shanghai to practice healing with herbs in Gynaecology and Oncology departments in Yue Yang Hospital.

“Currently, I am undertaking Vedic Counselling course to enhance my knowledge and integrate this ancient wisdom to assist each individual to gain Self-knowledge and Self-realization to be Wholeness. When Western medicine and philosophy meet Eastern”

Testimonials

I visited Malou every week / second week for over a year and can’t recommend her highly enough. She is so knowledgeable, kind and compassionate. I didn’t want to leave the table after each acupuncture session because I was so relaxed! The therapy + acupuncture combo is such a relief if struggling with anxiety related IBS. Absolutely worth the investment and I’m so grateful to have found her. A hidden gem in Dublin.

When I first met Malou my anxiety/depression was quite bad, found it very hard to get to sleep and just did not feel like myself. After several months of acupuncture, I can't recommend Malou enough. It was such a calming and peaceful environment to walk into and I felt a dramatic decrease in anxiety and better sleep after every session. My anxiety/depression started to lift and now I feel I have a new breath of life.
Thank you so much Malou.

I attended Malou in 2017 for a course of acupuncture treatments. I've had very positive results in the treatment of digestive problems and low energy. Malou is very professional. She is kind and compassionate, a good listener and very competent, confident and experienced in her work with Chinese medicine. I've found that the treatment works in a very subtle way, for example the first changes I noticed was a decrease in sugar craving and waking up full of energy in the morning as opposed to feeling groggy. The acupuncture treatments have strengthened my immune system overall and have worked on the underlying causes of my symptoms. I would recommend Malou very highly and I've no hesitation in going back for further acupuncture treatments at the first sign of a health issue.

I went to Dr Malou for multiple issues starting with hormonal imbalance up until most recently constipation and digestion disorder. Firstly I would like to thank her for helping me understand the functions of my body better and helping me understand the natural healing process we all are blessed with. With absolutely no medication and only a course of acupuncture treatments accompanied with diet and lifestyle changes , she was able to help reverse the bowel issues. It was such a great relief since I was in an unspeakable amount of pain when I went to her. The hormonal imbalance seemed to have reduced too and she has been very encouraging when it comes to my overall fitness and body issues. Thank you , Dr Malou. I am so glad I met such a positive person like you !

I started my acupuncture experience with Malou in January. I have been going through severe anxiety and turned into alternative medicine, since our conventional medicine knows little about the mind-body connection. During the first session, I felt very relaxed, I was never able to achieve this feeling, even by attending a massage in the past. Malou is great, she listens to you and always has great advice - from food to soul. She is very compassionate and professional. I have completed my 6 sessions and along with lifestyle changes, I have to say that my level of anxiety decreased a lot, I feel like myself again after many months of feeling hopeless. I would recommend Malou with all my heart, she helped me tremendously. Thank you!
