Libpq does all of the work. PHP has no notion of an encrypted
session, it just tells libpq to connect.
If you create a certificate for postgresql (see docs) libpq will
normally use an encrypted session by default. By setting hostssl in
pg_hba.conf it will enforce that all connections must be encrypted to
connect -- kinda a guarentee.
Anyway, it is that simple.
