You can create a SSH tunnel in your PC using this guide: https://www.linode.com/docs/databases/mysql/create-an-ssh-tunnel-for-mysql-remote-access/

I just tried on Linux with my machine using:

ssh root@X.X.X.X -L 3307:127.0.0.1:3306 -N

In this way I created a tunnel between my port 3307 and the server port 3306 (mysql port).

On Keira3 now I can connect on my remote server using
Host: 127.0.0.1 (localhost)
Port: 3307 (my tunnel)
User: remote server mysql user
Password: remote server mysql password

we could allow this using node-ssh https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-ssh
