Hi,
Yes, both of those treatment options you mentioned, as well as surgery and other options, are available for early stage cervical cancer and can be successful (lead to a full recovery).

You can read more about the treatment options for cervical cancer, along with helpful questions to ask a doctor at: National Cancer Institute (NCI): Cervical Cancer Treatment Options: http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/wyntk/cervix/page8.
