Can chest pains come from anxiety? if so, what is the best way to treat it?

Maybe: Chest pain can be from the heart, lungs, stomach, gall bladder as well as anxiety. It is best to make sure there is nothing more serious. If you feel it is from anxiety, you can try anti anxiety medications daily such as a Paxil (paroxetine) or as needed with maybe like xanax if only occasionally. Natural remedies are vitamin d, holy basil, calm's forte.

Yes : Yes, however , this is frequently a diagnosis of exclusion. If so medically treating the root cause anxiety would be the answer.
