The shower spray apparatus has a hollow housing with three spray exit openings in a common face, two for normal spray and the third for pulsating spray. Incoming pressurized water is fed into a diverter which includes a slide valve adjustable to proportion the flow of water along either of two paths exclusively, or in a continuous variable range between the two paths. The first path of fluid flow from the slide valve terminates in the two normal spray exit openings, while water flowing along the second flow path drives a turbine and exits via openings in the pulsating outlet. The rotating turbine includes a mask which sequentially covers and uncovers the spray outlet to provide the pulsating output. A knob on the spray apparatus housing is adjustably rotatable to operate a slide valve throughout a full range of adjustment, providing either all normal spray, all pulsating spray or any ratio therebetween. Adjustment of the slide valve adjusts the normal spray outlet to compensate for the change in water supply thereto and thereby provide a substantially uniform spray pattern and spray particle size.
