      Ali: it is possible to increase the
      pressure of your shower head to what ever you would like to have.
      I once plumbed in a Cat piston pump from a car wash for a man that
      that had psoriasis. At a setting of 150 psi, he was able to care for his condition so well that he
      later went into the business of
      manufacturing a retro fit kit for those who suffer from the same affliction.

      Well…there is a few facts missing. Is this your only shower and you expected greater pressure? Are you on a well?
      Hmmm….
      My guess… The shower head is new and has a limited flow for water conservaion…..swap out with a known “good flow / good pressure” head.
