Method of treatment is one of most significant differences between homoeopathy and allopathy. Homoeopathy focuses on enhancing body's response to condition while allopathy treats illnesses with medications and occasionally surgery. Homoeopathy is considered antithesis of allopathy since, unlike allopathy, it uses little amounts of diluted chemicals and operates on idea that "what caused problem in first place is also solution for treatment."
