Research aimed at determining the optimal speed of rehabilitation exercises is extremely relevant and can make a significant contribution to the development of rehabilitation medicine, improving patients` treatment outcomes and quality of life for patients. Purpose. The purpose of the study is to determine the optimal speed of performing rehabilitation exercises in patients with neurogenic dysfunctions to increase the effectiveness of the rehabilitation process and improve patients` quality of life. Materials and methods. The literature review included a detailed review of scientific publications and clinical studies from peer-reviewed journals and medical databases such as PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science to ensure the reliability and relevance of the information. This study involved 106 patients aged 42 to 59 years diagnosed with neurogenic dysfunctions such as vegetative-vascular dystonia, migraine, and mild traumatic brain injury. To ensure sample uniformity and gender equality, 60 women and 46 men were recruited. The study was conducted as a randomized controlled trial between May 2024 and October 2024. Participants were randomly assigned to three groups of 35–36 patients each. Exercises were performed for 12 weeks under the supervision of physical therapists. For the comprehensive study, standardized, valid and tested methods in physical therapy and rehabilitation medicine were selected, and the work was carried out according to the PICO principle. Results.The research results indicate that the moderate speed of rehabilitation exercises is optimal for improving the neurological condition, functional indicators and quality of life of patients with neurogenic dysfunctions. Further research should focus on identifying the mechanisms that determine these positive results and developing personalized rehabilitation programs considering the individual needs and characteristics of patients. Conclusions. 1. The speed of rehabilitation exercises has a significant impact on the effectiveness of therapy for patients with neurogenic dysfunctions. 2. Individualization of rehabilitation programs is a key factor in increasing their effectiveness. Further studies are needed to detail the effects of exercise speed on other aspects of the rehabilitation process.
