Get the details of the shower mixer and shower head and contact a plumbing supply or bathroom store (eg Plumbing World, Mico, Zip)
I had a similar problem about 5 years ago with a Feltonmix mixer and head. The mixer came fitted with a restricting valve to reduce pressure if installed in a mains pressure or equal pressure situation. As my property was on low pressure or unequal pressure system the flow was even further reduced.
The small plastic valve that Zip Plumbing sold me, fitted straight in where the old one came out and everything was good from then on. I did it myself and it took about 15 minutes.
Your local plumbing store will point you in the right direction and it won't cost you a cent for the info
BTW, you need a "maintenance" plumber, not one who specialises in new work. A good maintenance plumber will know how to sort out a problem, others will just replace everything and charge through the nose.
