Water pump pressure for shower?

Hi, I need to create a portable shower and was going to go the DIY route, i wanted to use water pumps normally used in ponds, aquariums etc etc as the means of creating water pressure for the shower, the shower need not be really strong in pressure but it should be strong enough such that a person can take a bath using it.height of the shower would for sure be less then 6 feet,question , water pumps are rated at gallons per minute or some equivalent rating, how strong a pump or how much GPM should i be looking at ?

Answer:

if your sink does not need a pump, you shower won't either....most water systems are pressurized
Himin newly has launched a solar patented booster pump for non-pressure solar water heater and it's quiet and gives comfortable pressure for shower.This pump fits for area where water pressure is small or rural area.
You want to look for the head of water it can pump, that's the pressure. Eg.
