A bit more information would help in giving the best advice. There are a variety of un-crossings available, along with methods to cleanse and banish unwanted energies. But specific information helps find specific solutions.
How does your friend know they have been bound?
What, precisely, has your friend been bound from? (And why?)
Do you have any information on what form of a binding was done, and/or how it was done?

Ok, so I want to make sure I am making the correct assumptions. I am assuming your friend used to be able to walk, but now can't. And your friend was brought to a practicing Zulu healer ... Which I will also assume to have been a person genuinely taught, in tune, and honest. If that is correct it has given me some information to unpack. Which is good. Thank you, it helps give a picture of what is going on.
To help me figure this out, Did something happen to your friend when he/she lost the ability to walk? Something physical like falling down somewhere, or having a sickness/illness? Has your friend also had a medical diagnosis done? If so, what was the result from the doctors?
Please keep in mind this is not to debunk or deny the idea of a spiritual attack. This is to figure out how to treat the whole person/situation. To ignore physical issues is to ignore half the problem.
That said, Why would someone feel the desire or need to bind her in this way? It seems very specific. Like some form of revenge or to 'teach a lesson'.
One more thing. Do you, or does the healer, have any information on how such a binding might have been created? Different cultures have different methods for such things and I am not familiar with the traditions of your area. For example some would work a spell while physically tying up some form of effigy or representation of your friend- like a photo or doll, a poppit or something similar. Others might call on a spirit, god/deity, demon, or ancestor to inflict the binding on the caster's behalf.
I am hoping that this additional information will reveal a plan of attack. Sometimes the solution is as simple as a heartfelt apology and learned lesson/humility. Other times it may take a more active severing or cleanse and dispell. Or if it is being enforced by a spirit of some kind then an appeal for peace or outright banishing could be needed. All alongside medical treatment if there is a bodily cause as well.
If this information gets too personal for the forums for you, you may certainly share the information.ation through pm's/mail. But in all honesty it would be better to keep the info you can share in this thread so that more than one of us can chip in and offer ideas.

Oh, and Draq, I have heard of some rare anecdotes of people being physically affected by particularly angry... and particularly strong entities. It is exceptionally rare though, and most commonly associated with severe hauntings leading to attempts at exorcism that fail.
I recall one mention of a ghost-hunter who went into a haunted home to sage and cleanse the place under her own efforts. The efforts failed and she was working on the process of engaging local clergy for a banishing/rite of lesser exorcism when her daughter woke up one day blind. And remained blind for several days. Medical cause was given as swelling around the optic nerve- treatment; wait and see what happens.
The ghost hunter came to believe the entity she was working to get banished was the cause, and she went back to the home to say "You leave us alone, we'll leave you alone". Then she cancelled her request with the local church and promised she would not set foot on the property again. The next morning her daughter woke up able to tell light from dark, and over roughly 24 hours (if memory serves) her vision returned.
Fair disclosure, I'm not entirely how valid the telling of the event is as it was on a docuseries. The severity of the affliction may have been embellished for sake of dramatics. But it isn't entirely implausible either as there is a good handful of other stories of both short and long term events I have come across.

I agree that healing workings would be a very good all-purpose thing to try. You can't ever go wrong with a bit of positive energy.
As far as specific suggestions, I would check with the doctor if it ok for your friend to float in water/a bathtub. ... Under supervision for safety, of course. You could do a healing bath with her. Warm (but not hot) water to sit or float in to take weight and pressure off of the spine for physical relief. And a bit of cleansing incense like sage, sandalwood, or dragon's blood for clearing/removing of negativity and creation of empowerment. Bay-leaf and mint or cedar (if you have access to cedar) in the water for cleansing in the water, and a big spoonful of salt dissolved in the water to conduct out (and ground) literal and spiritual infection.
Once in the water and comfortable, she (and anyone present) can repeat a couple affirmations to remind yourselves you are beings of light, will, radiant health, and innately safe through the immutable nature of your energy/soul. And that light is a part of you, radiating outward from within, carrying away the illness and negative energy into the water.
When ready, remove your friend from the water and pull the drain, letting the water drain away completely before extinguishing the incense. Then hive your friend finish up with a shower/bath to bathe and wash off the leftovers from the cleanse. Dry off, get a little sun, have a glass of water, and if the healer is willing, ask for a healing session to clear and seal/warding for your friend from the possibility of the attack to return.
The clear and ward can be done by yourself as well, it is a matter of a session of laying hands and willfully imagining your friend being encased and surrounded by a glowing white (or violet) light along with holding the idea/intent "Let no harm come to this person. Only light and love be allowed to reside here."
At -no time- does your friend need to be fully submerged in water. Or even mostly submerged. Safety is first and foremost of the greatest importance. Just being in the water enough to take the weight off is more than enough. And if your friend currently has no use of her legs, you don't want her sliding down into the water as she may be unable to lift back up or have trouble keeping her head above water. This isn't a baptism, or an exorcism. No need to take risks.
