I have an interesting situation with a shower kit I`ve just bought. The
shower can be seen he

The shower valve itself is easy to fit to the wall (has holes for screwing
to wall).
The shower arm and head on the other hand could be a problem as they are
quite heavy (and would be more so with water in them).
The kit comes with a 15mm to 1/2 inch compression elbow. which connects the
1/2 inch shower arm to 15mm copper which would run to the valve (inside a
stud wall).
What I can`t figure out is how to secure the shower arm to the wall. If I
just used the elbow without any other fixing surely the arm would flop
hopelessly towards the floor because of the weight.
I had thought about using a wall plate adaptor (like the type used for
garden taps):

straight compression coupler to join to the shower arm.
This would provide more strength but I still don`t think this would be
enough to hold the shower arm horizontally without gravity taking hold.
How have others tackled this problem? - even the manufacturer can`t help!
