What is the difference between homeopathy and naturopathy?

Some stupid guys I just talked to said his clinic only uses Homeopathic products. Our product is a Naturopathic, and I didn't know how to explain that the difference was menial, if any. I could really use some insight on this... any help is welcome.
Answer:
Homeopathy:
a. A Homeopath uses homeopathic medicine as the primary treatment for illness.
Homeopathy is a complete medicine 鈥?it can treat a wide variety of conditions from
nosebleeds, skin conditions, stiff neck muscles, digestive problems and chronic pain
to depression.
b. Homeopathic medicine is different from herbal medicines or mineral supplements.
Homeopathic medicines are made from very small quantities of plant, mineral or
animal substances.
c. Homeopathic medicines are non-toxic and safe for babies and during pregnancy.
d. Full treatment homeopathy looks for one medicine to treat all of the patients鈥?br /> problems. If you have headaches, constipation, chronic sinusitis, joint pain,
depression and eczema, one homeopathic remedy will be prescribed to treat all of
these problems. The medicine can cost as little as $7 for 1 year of therapy. Naturopathy:
a. A Naturopath has some knowledge about a lot of natural therapies. Many of the
therapies that a naturopath has a general understanding of (e.g. Western
Herbalism, Traditional Chinese Medicine, Nutrition, Acupuncture and Homeopathy)
can also be studied exclusively as specialties for up to 4 years each. To become a
specialist in each of the therapies listed above would require 15-20 years of training
and an equal number of years in practical experience. Naturopaths generally focus
on Western herbalism or botanical medicine.
b. Naturopathic medicine depends on the therapy the naturopath chooses 鈥?most often
this includes herbal medicine, botanical medicine and supplements (vitamins,
minerals, enzymes 鈥?
c. Herbal medicines, vitamins, minerals and enzymes are not always safe for children
or during pregnancy. Dosages and quantities need to be closely monitored by a
professional.
d. Western herbalism is similar to Western medicine 鈥?you get one or more medicines
for each problem you have. Western herbalism substitutes medicines listed above
for pharmaceutical drugs. For instance, if you have liver problems you may be
given Milk Thistle, if you have joint pain you might get Glucosamine Sulfate, if you
have headaches you may get White Willow Bark. With this approach costs escalate
with the number of health problems that need to be treated. Each bottle costs an
average of $20 per month.

Many nautropaths use homeopathic medicine, but not all naturopathic agents are homeopathic.Homeopathy was developed by a pharmacologist who developed many of the techniques, dilution and titration methods used in all forms of pharmaceutical research today. It is extremely well researched and there are documented studies showing its benefit on people in comas, infants and animals. One unlicensed psychologist, with no background in nutrition or natural medicine, runs a web site that claims it is only a placebo effect but he clearly lacks the education to know and there are even court documents on the Internet where the judge threw him out as an "expert witness" because he lacks any knowledge in this field and has a clear bias towards anything that doesn't involve toxic drugs.Other naturopathic modalities employ techniques for using herbs, nutrition and forms of energy work to support the good health of the patient. Nautropathy is a broader practice that employs homeopathy, and other things as well.

For me Homeopathy is Naturopathy because it works along nature not against it like Allopathic medicine and makes you a stronger better person.
Viva Homeopathy, nothing works better.
