A method of treating each of multiple formation zones in a subterranean well can include isolating two of the zones from each other in the wellbore with a plug assembly positioned in the wellbore; treating one of the zones by flowing a treatment fluid through openings that provide fluid communication between the wellbore and one of the zones; then blocking flow through the openings; increasing pressure in the wellbore in response to the blocking; and opening the plug assembly in response to the pressure increasing. A well treatment system for treating each of multiple zones intersected by a wellbore can include multiple plug assemblies in the wellbore, each of the plug assemblies isolating a respective adjacent pair of the zones from each other in the wellbore. Each of the plug assemblies opens in response to a respective predetermined pressure differential applied across the plug assembly.
