PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a shower head capable of increasing an effect of carbon dioxide and an effect of microbubbles synergistically, and a washing method using the same.SOLUTION: A shower head includes a body part for regulating a water flow channel, and a sprinkling member connected to the body part. The sprinkling member includes a plurality of sprinkling holes through which the water that passes through the flow channel is discharged. The body part includes a microbubble generation mechanism and an accommodation part. The microbubble generation mechanism has a structure to generate microbubbles in the water that passes through the flow channel. The accommodation part is arranged on the upstream side of the microbubble generation mechanism, and regulates an accommodation space for accommodating a carbonic acid tablet that reacts with the water that passes through the flow channel and generates carbon dioxide. 【課題】炭酸ガスの効果とマイクロバブルの効果とを相乗的に高めることが可能なシャワーヘッド及びこれを用いた洗浄方法を提供する。【解決手段】水の流路を規定する本体部と、前記本体部に接続される散水部材とを備えるシャワーヘッドが提供される。前記散水部材は、前記流路を通過した水が吐出される複数の散水孔を有する。前記本体部は、マイクロバブル発生機構と、収容部とを有する。前記マイクロバブル発生機構は、前記流路を通過する水にマイクロバブルを発生させる構造を有する。前記収容部は、前記マイクロバブル発生機構よりも上流側に配置され、前記流路を通過する水と反応して炭酸ガスを発生させるように炭酸タブレットを収容可能な収容空間を規定する。【選択図】図１
