Try using the loci.plugins.BF API. It is intended for use from Java
libraries and plugins.
import loci.plugins.BF;
...
String file = "/path/to/your/data.hdr";
ImagePlus[] imps = BF.openImagePlus(file);
If you need more control over how the images are opened, you can set them
using ImporterOptions; see here for details:
