The family of a 16-year-old girl fighting an excruciating disease is seeking the public’s help to cover the cost of a supposed miracle treatment she so desperately needs.
Moana Ruhfass was diagnosed with chronic regional pain syndrome (CRPS) in 2013 when she was just 11 years old, following a “seemingly innocent ankle injury,” her father, Manfred, wrote on GoFundMe.
Moana Ruhfass was a talented, passionate young dancer who had everything going for her – until she suffered an ankle injury that ultimately turned her life upside down.
As a sporty child, she was used to getting injured, but this time was different. What was thought to be a seemingly innocent ankle injury led to a life-changing, debilitating, insidious disease. At just 11 years old following an athletics event, Moana was diagnosed with complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS).
Our daughter Moana was a wonderful child, every parent could wish for. She was happy and smiling. She was a talented and passionate dancer. She had everything going for her, but that all changed after a seemingly innocent ankle injury changed her life forever. Moana has since been diagnosed with Chronic Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) a debilitating, insidious disease.

I had heard about Dr. Katinka van der Merwe and the Neurologic Relief Center in Fayetteville, AR. I decided to reach out for information as I was fearful that my CRPS had spread throughout my body.
The Neurological Relief Center in Arkansas is using a patented method call Quantum Neurology Therapy to treat patients with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome, CRPS (also known as RSD, which they refer to on their site, more often than RSD). I actually contacted the team there to get information on their process, letting them know about my own injury, so that I could get information to share with other survivors of the disease.
