Flushing out Heater Core

My heater in my Olds has stopped working; actually, it's effectiveness diminished slowly over time and it no longer works. A friend, who is a mechanic told me that it is very likely that the heater core is simply clogged and needs to be flushed out.

Is there an easy way to do this? I know that on many American cars, replacing a heater core is a major job that involves taking off the passenger side dash and/or fender! Can anyone steer me toward an easier solution?
