If rest of house is ok, then there is a problem with the line to your shower. Maybe the valve in the basement is only opened partially? Maybe the shower head is plugged up, or just crappy. Try replacing the shower head. It makes a huge difference in pressure.

I am a journeyman plumber, I would first pull of the shower head and make sure that it is not plugged with debris. Turn on the water with the head off and check pressure if it is still low then it is something stuck in the valves or piping issues. Is it a single handle or double?How old is your house?

drill out the head. take the shower head off, look at the end that the neck screws into. u should see 4-5 small holes, drillthem out with a larger bite than the holes r now.

definite..what they stated. sparkling the aerators. in case your pump close down and stress replaced into decreased on your pipes, once the pump comes again on and returns stress to the pipe, now and again it may jar loose some sediments and different junk in the pipes and it really is going to clog on your aerator. Had this ensue to me lately. merely unscrew them and take them aside (pay interest to what piece is going the position) reinstall and also you ought to have it fastened. I wager that's yoru situation.
