This kind of pain may be associated with gastric or intestinal issue, more specifically duodenal ulder or other disease.
Next Steps
Please consult a gastroenterologist for this issue. You may need a USG abdomen, but its better if you first consult a specialist.

May be gastritis if it is associated with food.
Otherwise vitamin d deficiency
Check vitamin d level in blood and rule out gastritis

This can occur due to muscle spasm in chest and thoracic muscles which might be getting increased at night.
Next Steps
She can start with Hot fomentation, take analgesic with muscle relaxant tablet, get her USG Chest and Abdomen to rule out any other cause for pain
