everyone have to connect to PG server using SSL

all users connected to web server using https, but it is connection
over SSL only between web server and user's browser!?

I need SSL crypt between web server and PostgreSQL server!
How am I able to do this?

For example if I connect to PostgreSQL server,
I am able to do like this:
ssh -L 4001:dbserver:5432 sector119(at)dbserver
psql -h localhost -p 4001 test

I create SSL tunnel over SSH and then connect to DB server over psql!

And I need to do the same connection to DB server over SSL using PHP,
without creating SSL tunnel over SSH!

For example:
Web server: 10.0.1.10
DB server: 10.0.1.102
User: 10.0.1.0/255.255.255.0

Web server: Apache; DB server: PostgreSQL
