Check this page out:

On a linux client use something like this:
ssh -L 6969:pghost:5432 yourusername@pghost
"pghost" is the machine with your postgres server. This makes your local
machine listen on 6969 for tunnel requests.
That means you just go into in pgadmin and configure a connection to 6969 on
localhost. Note that the port number 6969 can be anything you want, other
than a port the client is already listening on.
The same technique should work with puTTY setting up according to the above link.
Best,
Jim
