Yes, that method works quite well.
Also, if one selects edit mode and double-taps each message or conversation to
add it to the messages for deletion, double-tap the delete button every 100 or
so messages. Above that and the buffer gets full, slows down, and crashes; at
least when I did so with an iPhone 5. I do not know the current limit with my
iPhone 6+ as I no longer have many thousands of messages to clean out. It took
me about 9 months, to clean out 150,000 messages.

I can't try this right now as my son is using my iPhone to talk to his aunt,
but you could try grouping messages by conversation. That way if you have a
lot of messages from the same person, you could delete them all at once.
Completely ready for somebody to say that doesn't work though, I will give it
a try as soon as I get my phone back.
