How can I boost my shower's water pressure?

Is there a cheap, easy-to-install way to increase a shower’s water pressure? The water pressure has always been low, at least as long as we have been in the house (4+ years) and I have thoroughly cleaned the shower head (using vinegar to get rid of whatever deposits might have built up). What part of the plumbing system controls water pressure (as in, what would we have to replace)?
