This paper suggests a modified version of the quantum stabilization method for the usual SU(2) {sigma}-model, proposed by Mignaco and Wulck, which avoids the difficulties with the usual soliton boundary conditions pointed out by Iwasaki and Ohyama. The authors investigate the baryon number n {ge} 1 sector of the model and show that after the collective coordinate quantization it admits a stable soliton solution which depends on a single dimensional arbitrary constant. The results for static, rotational and total energies of the baryon number n {ge} 1 sector chiral solitons are derived and analyzed.
