Macarena Serrano-Cabrera is a Neuromuscular Specialist based in Perth, WA. Her practice is at 6 Verdun Street, Perth, WA 6009. She looks after people who are dealing with conditions that affect muscles, movement, and the way the body controls everyday actions.
Neuromuscular problems can be tricky. In many cases, symptoms build up slowly, and families need clear help and steady support. Macarena works with patients who have muscle weakness, stiffness, cramps, and trouble with balance or coordination. At times, these issues also link with spine problems such as scoliosis, so care often includes thinking about both the muscles and the spine together.
Her clinic also sees people with rare and complex diagnoses. That can include different types of muscular dystrophy and spinal muscular atrophy, as well as disorders like primary lateral sclerosis. She also helps manage cases where there are movement and control challenges, such as apraxia, or where the body has trouble using muscles the way it should.
Some patients come in with concerns like muscle breakdown episodes or ongoing muscle pain and weakness. There are also conditions where muscle fibres don’t work normally, leading to ongoing fatigue and weakness over time. Depending on the situation, she focuses on symptom care, helping families understand what to expect, and working out practical next steps.
Scoliosis and related rigid spine issues are common reasons families seek neuromuscular input. Macarena looks at the bigger picture, including how posture, breathing needs, and day-to-day mobility can change as conditions progress. She also pays attention to specific movement patterns, like horizontal gaze problems, which can affect how someone looks from side to side and how safe movement feels.
In childhood, neuromuscular symptoms can show up early, sometimes alongside hypotonia, epilepsy, or delays in how the body learns certain movements. Macarena supports families navigating those early years, where getting the right plan matters and small changes can make a big difference.
If you’re looking for neuromuscular care in Perth for yourself or a family member, Macarena Serrano-Cabrera offers a grounded, practical approach. The goal is to make sense of complex symptoms and help you manage them as smoothly as possible.
