A new approach to the quantization of the relativistic kink model around the solitonic solution is developed on the grounds of the collective coordinates method. The corresponding effective action is proved to be the action of the nonminimal d=1+1 point particle with curvature. It is shown that upon canonical quantization this action yields the spectrum of the kink solution obtained first with the help of WKB quantization. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}
