No: Hodgkin's is a serious cancer that used to kill people many many years ago before radiation and chemotherapy. The only was to cure the disease is with these options. Natural treatments will not get rid of hodgkin's disease. The outlook with appropriate therapy is excellent in most hodgkin's patients. So please discuss with a reputable oncologist and take the right therapy.

Chemoradiation: The standard of care for hodgkins lymphoma usually chemotherapy followed by radiation to the involved area. This will cure over 90% of all cases. There is no proven natural treatment that can replace the above standard of care currently though there are supplementary treatments to help patients to tolerate better.
