It is also possible to work the valves a little bit with an Allen wrench through the spark plug holes. The valves are off to the side of the head, not under the spark plugs, so this takes a bit of finesse.

If the engine was running OK previously, I'd give this a shot - a few manual cycles might free them up enough to get the engine to start.
