In an Instagram post that she shared on Friday, July 26, the mother-of-three explained that Hart has been undergoing hyperbaric oxygen therapy According to the Mayo Clinic, the therapy increases the amount of oxygen in the blood and is used to treat several medical conditions, reports PEOPLE.
“Four times a week either [husband Jim Edmonds] or I ‘dive’ with Hart in a hyperbaric compressed oxygen chamber (HBOT),” she captioned a photo of herself giving her son a kiss on the cheek. “After 5 dives we are already seeing progress: lifting his left leg on stairs when his right is restrained, bear crawling (perhaps trying to stand?), more willingly taking steps with assistance, and cruising from the couch to the coffee table.”
“Is it because of this alternative therapy, is it because he’s just getting older, is it because of PT, or is it because of his 3x/weekly chiropractor visits? Who knows, but it’s not hurting!” she wrote. “Go Hart, go!”
The next day, on Saturday, July 27, Edmonds shared an Instagram Story video of Hart standing and moving between the couch and a nearby coffee table.
“Omg!” she captioned the footage. “This is such great progress!!”
